“York University has built something special, something that is rapidly gaining momentum when it comes to inspiring our students, alumni and faculty to pursue their entrepreneurial aspirations,” says Rhonda Lenton, President and Vice-Chancellor. “The YSpace Network will ensure we build on that momentum right across our campuses, while leveraging the expertise and communities of powerful Faculty-based startup programs such as Schulich Startups, IP Osgoode and the Lassonde School’s BEST program.”

The Network has been jointly created by YSpace and the Schulich School of Business, co-led by York’s Director of Entrepreneurship & Innovation David Kwok and Schulich’s Executive Director of Innovation & Entrepreneurship Chris Carder, with strategic oversight and institutional support from the Office of the Vice President Research & Innovation.
