Skule™ Lunch & Learn presents: The Development of the Entrepreneurial Human Capital
Join U of T Engineering Alumni & Friends this month as Joseph Orozco, Executive Director of the U of T Engineering Entrepreneurship Hatchery, discusses the value of entrepreneurial human capital to our evolving economy, and the opportunities given to our students and alumni.
Founded in 2012, The Entrepreneurship Hatchery has been driven by the ideal that students should leave University of Toronto not only with a degree but with a job that they have created themselves and the commitment of developing the entrepreneurial human capital to THINK BIG and transform Canada.
The Hatchery, out of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, provides a comprehensive suite of programs and services designed to help students with entrepreneurial ambitions form teams, develop new competencies and launch their Startup companies. Over the last eight years, The Hatchery has attracted significant mindshare from the students with more than 1,800 student in 868 teams applying and making it a very competitive process where 870 students in 265 teams have been accepted in the same period of time.
The Hatchery has helped launch over 96 new Startup companies which collectively have raised north of $95 million in seed funding.
