I thought receiving the Nelson M Davis Scholarship was an honour, but meeting Bruce Lloyd (the manager of the scholarship) was a greater honour. The dinner celebration honouring Entrepreneurship Scholarship Donors and Recipients, held on February 2nd, 2012, was a memorable and delightful evening.
At the dinner, I met my donor, Bruce Lloyd, the president of Trent Valley Sand & Stone Ltd. I had the pleasure of listening to his stories about how he served in the war, how he made his business work, and why he decided to be part of this scholarship. First, it was moving to hear about his hardships and how his motivation to succeed was due to the fact that he had a family to feed. Hearing his story made it so much more real and learning about the mistakes he had made along the way was priceless. Secondly, it was nice to know that I had someone who supports the dreams I have and believes that I will make it. At the end of the night, he told me that he could see the hunger in my eyes; he truly believed that one day I would make the leap and start my business. Lastly, I enjoyed listening to his life story, his connection to Nelson Davis, and his reasons for helping young entrepreneurs like myself. He has inspired me to shoot for the stars, but most importantly to remember to give back when I get there.
Listening to all the recipients speak about their dreams, aspirations, and all their accomplishments has furthered my belief in the quality of the Ivey network. It was great to see everyone with that twinkle of hope in their eyes; it really has inspired me to take that leap of faith, and start the business I’ve been thinking about. In the words of Lloyd: “As long as you have the passion and the drive, there is no better time to start a business than the present.”
