A successful start-up by alumnus Scott Wahl

Many people associate start-up culture with business and the sciences. But no one at UWaterloo is particularly surprised to find so many arts people embedded within and leading various ventures. UWaterloo English alumnus Scott Wahl is a prime example as software director at Demetic. As a recent article in The Record reports, “Less than three years ago, Dematic’s presence in Waterloo consisted of three employees, setting up shop in a 4,000-square-foot space….. Today, it numbers more than 40 staff, and is preparing for its second physical expansion.” You can read more at “Waterloo’s Dematic is growing in rapid delivery world.”
