Visit Launch Academy

The Pre Master Program students visited Launch Academy. A business start-up incubator for aspiring entrepreneurs. The academy focuses on learning and developing entrepreneurship covering product creation, the know-how on start-ups, and understanding market tools of entrepreneurship. We were there for about an hour to learn about the different programs offered at Launch Academy and their success accomplishments. The initial purpose of the visit to Launch Academy was to exposed the PMP students to a re-emerging industry that is thriving in Vancouver. There is actually a growing demand in entrepreneurship, and for the tech related market tools and the need for specialized expertise between the entrepreneur and the market.

Entrepreneurship may even be as old as human civilization itself but the market tools and specialized skills required to build a successful enterprise has changed significantly. The market tools used in entrepreneurship today have taken a leap forward and have kept pace with the present advancement in technology. So, in order to keep up with these changes, the skills and experience required too has to change. The entrepreneurs today are much younger than the entrepreneurs a generation before. The advancement in technology has created new understanding, new markets, new tools and new studies. Therefore, there is a growing demand for modern and younger entrepreneurs to understand the needs for the right market tools that make enterprises succeed today. Launch Academy is providing space, expertise, and support to modern entrepreneurs to shorten their learning time and take their product to market faster.
