If you're struggling to make your mark in a business with history, the challenge is real. So is the opportunity to break new ground using powerful legacy tools and experience. This episode is all about finding the difficult, but valuable, balance between innovation and history, harnessing the past for a better, energized future.
Whether you are born an entrepreneur, or born into a family of entrepreneurs, there is no doubt that moving beyond the family legacy can be both a burden and an opportunity.
Anthea Sargeaunt started her entrepreneurial career right out of high school, building a business to pay her rent through her post secondary education path and launching her ambition to build something meaningful. Her lessons in entrepreneurship motivated her to create something world changing, while respecting the boundaries between family and business - an age old problem to which she applies a modern approach. Her company, 2S Water, has a huge mandate - to enable real time water testing and help enterprises and governments to improve global water safety. But, transitioning from intergenerational legacy to leading edge innovator is daunting in many ways, and running an engineering-focused business as a risk taking entrepreneur is no less overwhelming.
