YEDI Expands Horizons: Bridging Canadian Entrepreneurship with Opportunities in Uzbekistan
27 May 2024
YEDI’s mission is to continue forging new paths for Canadian entrepreneurs and students, creating a global impact. Our recent visit to Uzbekistan stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to opening new markets and fostering international collaboration. Dr. Marat Ressin, PhD, President of YEDI, and Ric Phillips, MBA, Director of International Programs, had the distinct pleasure of meeting with key figures at IT Park Uzbekistan. This meeting was pivotal in strengthening our international ties and exploring new opportunities for our community.
Dr. Ressin shared detailed insights into YEDI’s educational programs and ventures for entrepreneurs, which have been helping entrepreneurs since 2013. Another key highlight of their discussions during the meeting was the emphasis on YEDI’s International program. This program is specifically designed to train international entrepreneurs on conducting business in Canada, adapting their products or services to the local market, and ensuring a seamless soft landing.
Uzbekistan, with its rapidly growing economy and supportive entrepreneurial ecosystem, presents fertile ground for innovation and business expansion. YEDI is actively forging international partnerships to expand into diverse regions, providing an abundance of resources to our current and future entrepreneurs. By engaging with dynamic markets like Uzbekistan, we offer our community opportunities to access new markets, gain international exposure, and enhance their entrepreneurial skills. These collaborations are designed to open new horizons and drive success for Canadian entrepreneurs on a global scale.
The experience in Uzbekistan was nothing short of amazing. The warm hospitality and the vibrant entrepreneurial spirit of the region exceeded our best expectations. By creating a conduit between Canada and Uzbekistan, we are not only opening new markets but also fostering a spirit of global cooperation and innovation. This partnership is set to unlock numerous opportunities, driving growth and success for our entrepreneurs.
