starting and growing a small business. We hope to provide more of those opportunities for women and minority entrepreneurs that can lead to economic self-sufficiency by realizing the power of their tremendous potential. We will also offer unique workshops and training programs specifically geared towards women and minority entrepreneurs.
Within our facility, we will offer programs designed to introduce entrepreneurs to the various aspects of Canadian entrepreneurship. We will incorporate industry experts and leading professionals to work with young entrepreneurs to help them set up and learn to run the different areas of their business. Our goal is to help entrepreneurs build the foundation for the success of their business by helping them create the blueprint needed to pursue that success. We want to empower entrepreneurs with the support structure they need to meet head-on the future challenges they may face
Within the context of our growing practice, Kadri Law has never passed on an opportunity to extol the virtues of Windsor as a great place to launch and start a business. While Windsor often receives serious consideration, it ultimately loses many opportunities to the GTA.
We believe that within the context of what we seek to create at our proposed facility, a dynamic new Business Incubator Ecosystem for entrepreneurs will serve as a compelling selling point in our ability to attract and retain these new entrepreneurs to the city of Windsor.
One of the fastest growing industry segments in our practice is the tech sector. Overall, the Canadian tech sector is booming. While Toronto may still dominate Canada’s tech sector, other dynamic markets across the country such as Waterloo are gaining recognition. However, cities like Windsor that border with large US cities have a unique opportunity in that they have been thrust into the spotlight as a result of US restrictions on highly skilled H1B workers. Given the low cost of living combined with diverse, vibrant, and safe communities, Windsor offers accessible corporate infrastructure for big and small employers while sitting in close proximity to North America’s pre-eminent international US-CANADIAN border crossing.
Prior to COVID19, there was already an emerging battle among developed countries as they wage war to incentive and attract entrepreneurs to settle in their country. My belief is that COVID19 will only accelerate this fight as no country in the world has been sparred from the economic disruption caused by COVID19. As countries grapple with developing plans to re-emerge and rebuild their economies, entrepreneurs will play an even more critical role in economic recovery, both nationally and on the local level for every Canadian city.
