Jean-François Bouchard, president of Sid Lee, a creative agency in Montreal, on youth entrepreneurship : You need to realize that risk is a myth. If you are in your twenties and you want to launch a startup, the notion of risk is completely theoretical. First, you have nothing to lose. The worst that can happen is that you might have to get a job. I say to young people who are bitten by the entrepreneurial bug to ignore those who say their idea is too risky: it is only an illusion. The days when you had to take out a mortgage to launch your business are long over. Besides, young people rarely have any house to mortgage when they are only twenty!
