'''OVERVIEW'''

~~~~

Dalhousie University is located in the heart of Halifax in Nova Scotia, Canada. Local startup ecosystem is still in its growing stage. There have been several champions working on developing the ecosystem, but only very recently has the government started to put more pressure on universities to promote entrepreneurship and facilitate deeper connection with the local startup community. Based on this initiative there was a group of political, academic and business leaders formed called oneNS Coalition. The mandate of oneNS Coalition is to instill further growth in the region and a 10 year plan for economic development and sustainability. One of the major topics is entrepreneurship and innovation.

As one of our strategic student priorities we have created a grassroots movement Dalhousie Entrepreneurship Society.

Student Priority - Dalhousie Entrepreneurship Society (D.E.S.)

D.E.S serves as a vehicle to deliver our strategic student priorities and initiatives.
