Training the next generation of leading entrepreneurs in Canada.

We are an experienced team of driven individuals who provide free business training, funding and peer mentorship to young people so that they can make their business ideas become realities. Our goal is to help make them see how bright their futures can be.

Young entrepreneurs inspire us.

Here’s the truth about us: Young entrepreneurs inspire us so much with their hearts and their “I will only work on stuff that I actually like” energy. But we know how hard it is to launch a business. Youth have exciting business ideas, but feel discouraged—like they’re missing something. At BITS, we strive to change that story. If youth have an idea or want to create a business, they know that BITS has their back.
