Episode Description from the Publisher

Jeff Adamson, the athlete-turned-entrepreneur who co-founded SkipTheDishes and Neo Financial, says Canada isn’t producing many new household brands because it has become too focused on managing legacy institutions instead of building new ones. He argues both the business culture and regulatory environment need a major shift—making it not just admirable but irresistible for people to take risks, build companies, and stay in Canada.This podcast is generously supported by Don Archibald.
