Gary Bizzo is an accomplished business owner, mentor and social media ‘Agent of Change’. Over the years he has mentored over 900 investors, business leaders and entrepreneurs. While he was running his own advertising agency he was approached to lead a business incubator in Vancouver and did this for 10 years while also running his own business. As a top social media influencer Gary has a large following on various platforms online and he was able to help change a Canadian Law (Bill C-470) by leveraging on the power of Twitter.  His specialities are startups, incubators and finance - all of which he gives us an insight to in this interview.

Gary shares with us the key challenges that he sees small and micro enterprise owners making all the time and shares a unique idea on how to creatively solve these challenges through a pay-it-forward system. Doesn’t make sense? Then have a listen to the podcast! He also goes over what he has learned about the importance of confidence and value perception from working closely with and mentoring hundreds of businesses.
