No matter their passion, interest, or previous entrepreneurial experiences, the Longo CfE has specialized experiential learning opportunities that will stimulate new ways of thinking and support their unique goals.
We believe in providing support to entrepreneurs. We enable our members to innovate, creatively problem solve, and engage in entrepreneurial activities. We support Humber students, alumni and faculty/staff at their earliest stages of entrepreneurship: when they learn to recognize opportunities; develop, analyze and refine ideas; create plans; form teams; and pitch ideas.
As part of Humber’s Centres for Innovation network (COIs) we provide interdisciplinary and experiential learning opportunities for students to become innovative and strategic problem solvers. While every member may not choose to start their own business, the Longo CfE facilitates skills based training programs required to help our members be successful in whatever career path they decide to pursue.
