Longo Centre for Entrepreneurship

Fostering entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial innovation.

Grow Your Entrepreneurial Potential

The Longo Centre for Entrepreneurship (Longo CfE) offers an inclusive environment to expand the entrepreneurial potential of Humber and Guelph-Humber students, alumni, faculty, staff, and the community at large. Focused on early stage entrepreneurial ideas, our programs provide the resources and support needed for a venture to move from ideation to validation and launch. In collaboration with Humber’s Centres of Innovation (COI) Network, we provide interdisciplinary learning opportunities that equip students with strategic problem-solving skills and foster innovative thinking.

We believe that the entrepreneurial mindset and approach is not limited to entrepreneurs alone, but also individuals who want to spearhead new experiments or initiatives within existing companies. We provide these individuals, aka intrapreneurs, opportunities that connect them to startups, small businesses, and organizations that are looking to provide students with experiential learning opportunities.
