"Platform for Serendipity" with Kristjan Sigurdson of Endeavor Canada
We welcome to the show Kristjan Sigurdson, Managing Director at Endeavor Canada. Founded in 1997, Endeavor is a global organization with a mission to unlock the transformational power of entrepreneurship by selecting, supporting, and investing in the world’s top founders. Today, Endeavor’s network spans 40+ locations and supports 2,300+ entrepreneurs, whose companies generate combined revenues of over $28 billion, have created more than 3.9 million jobs, and, in 2020, raised over $4 billion in capital.
As Managing Director of Endeavor Canada, Kristjen connects growth-stage entrepreneurs with resources, mentorship, and networks to scale their businesses and transform their communities.
But he’s been working hard to drive Canadian innovation in numerous roles for more than a decade, including helping scale the Creative Destruction Lab into one of the world's largest startup support organizations, while also completing a PhD in Strategic Management from the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management.
He’s got an amazing background and has been a stellar resource to founders across Canada and beyond, and I can’t wait to pick his brain on what it takes to drive innovation, achieve growth and scale in 2024.
