Episode 111 – Immigrant Entrepreneurs




BMO Bank of Montreal and PROFIT Magazine Business Coach Podcast show

Summary: Each year, about a quarter of a million people come to Canada to start a new life and a significant percentage of them are or hope to be entrepreneurs. Starting your own business is tough, no matter who or where you are. But that task is even tougher for new Canadians who often face linguistic and cultural barriers not to mention the lack of established professional network in their new country. In this episode of the Business Coach Podcast Ian chats with Roger Peers, founder of Newcomersstartup.com, a Toronto based consultancy specializing in immigrant startups. Also joining the Business Coach Podcast is Royson Ng, the president of Samtack Incorporated, a distributor of computers and consumer electronics based in Markham Ontario.
