This week, Colin chats with Tricia Denomme of the Huron Business Centre about Summer Company, a program that helps young people across Huron County turn business ideas into real summer ventures. Designed for students returning to school in the fall, the program combines business training, one-on-one support, and grant funding to give participants a practical introduction to entrepreneurship.
The conversation explores what makes Summer Company more than just a summer job. Tricia explains how students learn not only to deliver a product or service, but also to handle the behind-the-scenes work that comes with running a business, from marketing and scheduling to invoicing and planning. She also talks about the confidence, resilience, and workplace skills participants gain along the way, even if they do not see themselves as future entrepreneurs.
It is a timely conversation about youth opportunity, local business development, and the value of giving young people the tools to build something of their own.
