I stopped going to university because I wanted to do my own business.
Before I literally stopped going to school, I found out that my business could be supported by the federal government under the Startup Visa Program.
There are about 50 business incubators across the country so I contacted each and got them to support my business and help me thru getting PR.
Fortunately, quite a few of them offered to help my business and I was able to apply for a temporary work permit while my PR is processing.
My company (called Visaflo) is still at the very early stage and pivoted multiple times but raised a seed round from a renowned early-stage investor.
I'm seeing many friends of mine struggling a lot because they don't see their future in their current school/curriculum. If you have a clear mission/vision on what you want to do, I want to encourage you to go for it. Life is just too short.
+ If you are an entrepreneur, especially in tech, who needs some one to talk to, I'm always open
