A Fireside Chat with Rob Hunter (YC W15)
Rob Hunter joins us for an intimate fireside chat hosted at Akatos House.
Rob is a true serial entrepreneur and currently teaches entrepreneurship at the Ivey Business School. He co-founded HigherMe (YC W15) and Lexria, opened and operated 7 Marble Slab Creamery stores, built a mini student real estate empire while at school, and worked alongside founders as a GP at Speaker Ventures.
Rob has seen every side of the builder’s journey - from raising money, scaling teams, and exiting, to going bankrupt and starting again. He's lived the highest highs and the lowest lows.
Join us for a candid conversation about the entrepreneurial rollercoaster and what it really takes to build, invest in, and scale resilient companies.
