Ahead of the Curve: Building One of Canada’s Top Agencies
Topic: Entrepreneurship
Many people have a ‘big idea’ for a business yet most are unsure how to get it off the ground - or furthermore, turn it into a success. Who better to turn to for expert insight than last year’s Deloitte Start-Up winner of the RBC Canadian Women Entrepreneur Awards, Mia Pearson, who took home the win with the fascinating story of how she grew her latest venture from a novel idea to one of the most competitive communications agencies in Toronto.
A force within the Canadian marketing scene, Mia is known as an innovator, corporate strategist and social pioneer. Always ahead of the curve, in 1996 Mia created the first technology boutique PR agency in Canada and grew it to 120+ people across the country and San Francisco before selling it to Fleishman-Hillard in 2008.
Her next mission was to set the standard in how agencies integrated social media with traditional PR - the result is North Strategic, a disruptive company that quickly established itself as an industry leader and has earned Mia and her team countless accolades including 2013 Top Marketers in Canada, 2014 Small Business of the Year, and Strategy Magazine’s 2014 Agency of the Year.
