Our Focus on Mature Entrepreneurs

Our Focus on Mature Entrepreneurs

KnowledgeSuites is particularly focused on the “mature” entrepreneur (i.e. people leaving an existing career to start a new company) in the financial services and ecommerce/IT space.

The Statistics Canada: Labour Force Survey, December 2005 clearly shows that the employment growth rate in 2005 was highest amongst the self-employed. Indeed more than one-third of Canada’s record-breaking job growth in 2005 was as a result of entrepreneurial workers stepping out on their own, the StatsCan employment report reveals. Eighty-eight thousand self-employed positions were created during 2005, compared with about 233,000 jobs overall.

Self-employment is now the way of life for about 2.5-million Canadians, representing almost 16% of the total workforce.

KnowledgeSuites helps mature entrepreneurs to create wealth. We are a private, for-profit, initiative that assists Canada’s entrepreneurs by providing know how and space to create better business start-ups.
