Show Notes
Lucy Hargreaves, co-founder and CEO of Build Canada think tank, discusses new research showing that the number of Canadian-founded tech startups remaining headquartered in the country has plummeted between 2015 and 2024. Hargreaves argues that while Canada has the talent and resources to compete globally, the country has chosen "safe incrementalism" over bold nation-building solutions, making it increasingly difficult for entrepreneurs to pursue their ambitions domestically.
