We champion entrepreneurship for humans
The Conestoga Entrepreneurship Collective (CEC) was created to support the specific needs of Conestoga students, deliver unique offerings to the entrepreneurship community and provide programming that would create room for collaboration in the broader ecosystem. The result has been more than we ever could have imagined.
Multiple pathways have been created so that students can choose an experience that matches their skills, aspirations and definitions of success. We’ll help you join the entrepreneurship ecosystem on your own terms. The future of entrepreneurship is democratic, inclusive, diverse and profoundly human.

Our values
- Community: It takes a village to launch a person. We proactively curate connections and collaboration within the Collective, in the Conestoga community, and in the broader ecosystem to support the success of our clients.
- Fast and lean: We move at the speed of the real world. Focus and urgency inform program development, iteration, and delivery to enable our clients to learn fast and succeed swiftly. No wasted time, no wasted effort.
- Potential first: We see you. A dedication to empowering our clients to reach their full potential is at the core of all our interactions and communications. When you succeed, we succeed.
- World x Conestoga: We live at the intersection between what the world needs and what Conestoga offers. Opportunities can start with the students or the market, but they all converge in a space that serves both.
