As you can tell, Startup Canada is really scrappy. We work with the education ecosystem through our work with Mitacs in the community, but we also work with student clubs; that's how we do it. We have the Startup Campus network with student clubs across Canada that are connected to the Startup communities. The way we prepare the students to take their own initiative and to ensure that they have the skills is to have them participate in online courses and things like that, and to engage with the Startup community and attend events at places like Communitech. We find it's really effective to engage directly with the end- user rather than with the institution, because that takes time.
