STRATFORD The Stratford Perth Centre for Business has helped launch seven new, small student-run businesses thanks to its annual Summer Company Program. “It’s a huge win-win for everybody involved definitely,” said Holly Mortimer with the Stratford Perth Centre for Business. The Summer Company Program is for those ages 15 to 29. It offers mentorship and provincial grants totalling $21,000. The Cente for Business hopes the program helps young entrepreneurs gain transferable skills for the future. “There’s obviously mathematics involved and sometimes signs involved and all those things but there’s also commitment and planning,” said Mortimer. Evan Johnson, 15, built the brand Doggy Delights as an organic, healthy alternative snack for dogs.
