Steve Singh was always interested in innovation and new ideas, so on a trip to Silicon Valley in 2015, he was inspired by the energy and creativity that was present in the area. He knew that there was a lot of potential in Canada and he wanted to create a community that would showcase the best that the great north had to offer.

Raj was also on the trip to San Francisco and he was impressed by Steve’s vision. The two of them decided to partner up to make Steve’s vision a reality. They co-founded ThinkingNorth, a platform that aimed to bring together the best and brightest minds in Canada to share their ideas and showcase the deals and innovations that were coming out of the north.

As Thinking North began to grow, Steve and Raj knew that they needed to bring in some new talent to help take Thinking North to the next level. In 2017, they were lucky enough to bring Danielle onboard, she was passionate about the mission of Thinking North and wanted to get involved. Danielle joined the founding team and quickly became an integral part of Thinking North. With her help, Thinking North continues to grow and establish itself as a hub for innovation and creativity in Canada.
