2009 Summer Company Participants

The Summer Company program provides the future leaders of Ontario with an understanding of enterprise and entrepreneurship at an early age.

This program gives students the chance to run their own business with limited risk and the potential to earn and learn more than they would as an employee at another summer job. With Summer Company, students create their own job; a job that no one else can apply for.

We need to encourage and support our young entrepreneurs to reach for their dreams, as they will determine the future success of our economy in the global marketplace.

Starting your own business requires a leap of faith. But the many positive attributes—including independence and the ability to balance work and family—are attractive, and many Ontarians appear eager to take the plunge.
