As part of the 2015 Startup Canada Webinar Learning Series, Startup Canada is pleased to feature Ken Bautista, Director of Entrepreneurship, Edmonton Economic Development Corporation and CEO/Co-Founder of Startup Edmonton on Friday, April 24 at 2pm EDT.
Ken Bautista started his first venture, an education-based interactive studio, while completing an education degree at the University of Alberta. He sold the business and went on to co-found Rocketfuel Games (game-based learning), Flightpath Ventures (early stage seed fund), and multiple community initiatives (artsScene, TEDxEdmonton). To grow his local startup community, Ken co-founded Startup Edmonton, a hub/campus that has since mobilized 50+ startups and hosts 150+ events annually. In 2014, the nonprofit company was acquired by Edmonton Economic Development, where Ken now leads the city’s entrepreneurship portfolio. He is also a national advisor to the Startup Canada Communities initiative.
Participants will:
- Gain insights on how to engage with local, national, and global leaders
- Receive charismatic communications advice
- Learn how to communicate and operate in various startup environments
