Presented at the Hill School of Business #POEBootcamp (Prince's Operation Entrepreneur) August 25th, 2017 in Regina. The title "We're all Gutenberg and it's Our Turn to Create History" was to capture the essence of what has changed in our world over the past 10 years. Life as we knew is has been forever changed. Collabs, Lottery Tickets, and Moonshots. Really the message was partnerships, generosity and big hairy audacious goals. You need to work with others no matter what stage you're at. If you aren't generous, someone else in your industry will be and take your customers. Finally a company that has a defined purpose will always beat out a company that just competes on merit alone. The message of care more, think different and help people. It takes a community to raise a company, you need to raise your community up so it can support your company.
