In this episode of Tech Uncensored, we speak with someone who has worked on both sides of the aisle from supporting entrepreneurs to more recently, deciding to take the leap fully into developing her own startup.
Usha Srinivasan is an Ecosystem Builder. She has worked in Economic Development for 15 years supporting startup entrepreneurs in program development through MaRS, Elevate and most recently, Brampton Venture Zone.
Usha’s always been a builder and has leveraged her network to chart a path for many founders and developed critical programs to bring founders to the next level. Along the way, in her words, she ran side-hustles–passion projects from her own consulting business, to managing a small reggae record label to running a bakery business in the Beaches area in Toronto.
Now Usha has decided to become a full-time startup founder for a talent platform called B-Ready to support the underutilization of immigrant and BIPoC talent in Ontario specifically connecting them to SME’s and startups.
This is a conversation about Usha Srinivasan's path from Economic Development to Entrepreneurship, and the lessons she's taking with her.
