We’ve joined forces with George Brown College to inspire and empower the next generation of talented culinary entrepreneurs with an all new scholarship program, innovative experiences, mentorship and more.
George Brown College’s Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts has built a reputation for providing students innovative opportunities to practice their passion in an increasingly challenging job market. And together with Cookin’s Platform, students have a new entrepreneurial option to consider.
Introducing the George Brown Student Startup
To launch our partnership, starting on May 6 and running until the end of June, each week a new student from the Culinary Arts Program will operate their own business, showcasing their talent on the Cookin platform.
After a competitive selection process, guided by Chef John Higgins, we’ve handpicked 7 highly-skilled students to dive into online restaurant entrepreneurship. Indulge in the creative menus crafted by George Brown’s culinary stars and show your support for the next generation of top chefs.
