Harley Finkelstein: We Are Living in the Next Renaissance, How The Next Wave of Entrepreneurs Will Change the World as We Know It | Entrepreneurship E252
Growing up, Harley Finkelstein had a passion for entrepreneurship. He became one of the first vendors on Shopify, and his T-shirt company became a survival tool for him in college. He realized that he could never see himself working for anyone else. Harley is now the President of Shopify and a respected entrepreneur. In this episode, Harley unpacks his lifelong journey as a serial entrepreneur. He will explain why we are currently in an entrepreneurial renaissance and how to thrive in the new “connect to consumer” world.
Harley Finkelstein is an entrepreneur, lawyer, and the President of Shopify. Harley is an Advisor to Felicis Ventures and one of the “Dragons” on CBC’s Next Gen Den. He received the Canadian Angel Investor of the Year Award, Canada’s Top 40 Under 40 Award, Fortune’s 40 Under 40, and was inducted into the Order of Ottawa. Harley starred on Discovery Channel’s I Quit, and recently co-founded Firebelly, a modern high-end tea brand.
In this episode, Hala and Harley will discuss:
- How Harley came from “forced entrepreneurs”
- Becoming one of the first vendors on Shopify
- How Shopify revolutionized online business
- The Entrepreneurial Renaissance
- Why more women are becoming entrepreneurs
- Reverse engineering your business momentum
- Why Harley co-created Firebelly Tea
- The Connect to Consumer Era
- Why 2023 is the year of the entrepreneur
- And other topics…
