Recruiting Young Entrepreneurial Talent

The best people to think outside the box are the ones who haven’t learnt the rules of the box! Bringing in young entrepreneurial talent into your organizations can inspire fresh thinking about the fundamentals of your business. At both the undergrad and MBA level, the Queen’s School of Business has entrepreneurial students involved in business plan competitions, case competitions, and the TriColour Venture Fund.

Venture Financing

For Venture Financing, we invite companies to participate in the TriColur Venture Fund program where MBA students evaluate your business as a potential for venture investment. Participating companies will be eligible for up to $150,000 in funding along with access to the QCBV network of angel investors and venture capital organizations. The QCBV will also work with you to secure government funding to complement private equity investments.
