The entrepreneurial world is loaded with bright, usually young, people who dream of one day founding the next Google, Facebook, or something uniquely new and revolutionary.
While many are successful in their own right, not many make it to that level. However, one bright young Canadian is nearing that point and along the way is helping other young Canadians.
Rahim Fazal, originally from Burnaby, B.C., and the youngest person yet to enter and graduate from the Richard Ivey School of Business without a pre-requisite degree, co-founded and is chief executive of Involver – one of the hottest and most groundbreaking social media companies in San Francisco.
Launched four years ago, it was the first company to create a way for brands to use Facebook, which at the time was a growing social media network that has now become the world’s biggest with some 700 million users.
