Episode Overview

Conor Phillips is an innovator, creative problem solver and serial-entrepreneur, based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. After working in the tourism industry for several years, Conor recognized that something was missing from how small businesses promote their products and services, and how travellers discover the activities, events, festivals and accommodations around them, particularly the tourism they don’t know exists. Which led Conor to build her startup, Pathfinder365.
