Start Small – Building Your Side Hustle

​Workshop: Start Small – Building Your Side Hustle

​Calling all side hustlers and aspiring business owners!
Got an idea you’d love to turn into something real? Join the Centre of Innovation & Entrepreneurship (COIE) for a practical, hands-on session to explore what entrepreneurship can look like—part-time, full-time, or just for fun (and for networking).

​Learn the essentials of starting and sustaining a side hustle, from evaluating your idea and building your brand to registering your business and understanding sales tax. You’ll also discover supports, mentorship programs, and community connections that can help you take your next step with confidence.

​Pat is an entrepreneur and lifelong Torontonian who teaches Creative Entrepreneurship at Centennial’s Story Arts Campus.
