Event Details

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010
Venue:
Canadian Clay & Glass
Gallery, 25 Caroline Street North, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
Time: 7pm - 9pm
Canadians already understand that innovation of all kinds is critical to our country’s future prosperity. The competition is fierce, social, political and economic issues are urgent, and the challenges ahead are formidable. Our response will require much more than the contributions of individual innovators and companies, and must include communities, institutions and government.
Ilse Treurnicht will explore models for collaboration - between silos of specialization, and the cultures of academe, business, and the public sector - as we embark on a shared journey towards a resilient innovation nation.
Ilse Treurnicht
CEO, MaRS Discovery District
Ilse
Treurnicht is the CEO of MaRS Discovery District, a leading innovation
centre located in Toronto. She oversees both the development and
operations of the MaRS Centre and its broad suite of entrepreneurship
and innovation programs.
MaRS offers advisory services, market
intelligence and entrepreneurship education to emerging companies in health care/life sciences, digital media/ICT, cleantech and social
purpose businesses across Ontario. Ilse has worked closely with the
leadership of Toronto's academic institutions and teaching hospitals to
create MaRS Innovation, an integrated commercialization platform for 14
Toronto Institutions and served as the interim Managing Director for a
year following its formal launch in early 2008.
Ilse joined MaRS
in early 2005 from her role as President & CEO of Primaxis
Technology Ventures, a start-up stage venture capital fund focused on
the advanced technologies sector. Prior to Primaxis, Ilse was an entrepreneur with senior management roles in a number of emerging
technology companies.
She is an active member of Canada's
innovation community, and has served on the boards of private companies,
industry associations and research organizations, and has been a member
of several government advisory panels.
Ilse holds a DPhil in chemistry from Oxford University, which she attended as a Rhodes scholar.
Please join us in welcoming five of
Canada’s leaders in the field of social innovation. Each lecture will
also feature a local panel and will be an opportunity to learn new ideas
and systemic approaches to some of our most pressing social problems.
