Discovering the connections between neurodivergence and entrepreneurship through narrative interviews

Victoria's CBC interview on "Let's Go by Sabrina Marandola"

My project aims to explore the connections between neurodivergence and entrepreneurship. While my focus is not on establishing direct causality, I'm keen on unraveling how certain cognitive and behavioral patterns, often innate to neurodivergent individuals, contribute to their success in entrepreneurial or non-conventional paths. To achieve this, I intend to conduct interviews with entrepreneurs, founders, and other creative minds, spanning the entire neurodivergence and neurotypical spectrum. Through their narratives, I seek to understand their journeys and the obstacles they may have encountered. I hope to deepen our understanding of both neurodivergent and neurotypical thinking tailored to the context of entrepreneurship.
