How have they been so successful? By focusing on being an innovative leader in their field. And not just with the products and services they offer, but also by hiring and inspiring innovative thinkers who have the ability to identify and understand the ever-changing trends of the industry.
“In order to succeed in Ontario, businesses need to leverage the province’s vast resources, human capital, and geographical location to optimize their growth,” according to the head of the company, Sujay Shah. “The cultural diversity that exists here should be entrenched into all business plans to also facilitate innovation within the products and services being sold.”
