John Stix is the president of Fibernetics, Worldline’s parent company. Just over 10 years ago, he and a couple of his buddies started up a business in a basement, that has, in just that short span of time, turned into one of the biggest telecommunications companies in Canada.

That experience John earned is invaluable, and that is why he mentors at Startup Weekends, helping the next generation of entrepreneurs to realize their dreams. A global grassroots movement, Startup Weekends empowers entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures.

If you have a great idea for a business, app or service, the next 54 hour brainstorming extravaganza is coming up February 6th. Learn more about Startup Weekend Waterloo Region and let John help you in making your dream a reality.
