Quantitative Analysis Internship - December 2023

This project will begin December 1st following a kick-off meeting and orientation for all student-hires. The end-date for the project and deliverable submission deadline is December 29th at 11:59 PM MST. The Antarctic Institute of Canada (AIC) is a non-profit organization that conducts research activities, academic mentorship programs, and equity building through a variety of government-funded work initiatives for undergraduate and graduate students. The students will delve into the intricacies of human experiences, perceptions, and perspectives, extracting valuable insights from qualitative data. Through the skilled interpretation of narratives, interviews, observations, and other qualitative sources, the intern aims to uncover nuanced patterns, themes, and underlying meanings that may not be immediately evident through quantitative methods alone.

Competitive Analysis of Online Communities for Entrepreneurs

Strengthening the Agri-Food Online Community For over 20 years, Bioenterprise Canada has been accelerating agri-food businesses and building a strong network of partners, including accelerators, industry groups, academic institutions, investors, and, most importantly, entrepreneurs. One of the most frequent challenges our entrepreneurs face is: How can I connect with peers, engage with investors, and build meaningful partnerships in the agri-food sector? We believe the solution lies in a thriving online community tailored to the agri-food ecosystem. The Engine: Our Online Community We have taken the first step by launching The Engine —our digital community—on the DISCO platform. (Preview it here: The Engine ). The Engine is more than just a networking community—it also serves as a centralized platform for the Bioenterprise team to efficiently manage memberships, process payments, and seamlessly integrate with our CRM for streamlined data tracking. We now want to refine and expand The Engine by learning from other successful online communities. Project Goals This project will focus on two key areas: 1️⃣ Community Research We want to explore existing online communities designed for entrepreneurs and the agri-food sector. This includes platforms like YODL, CAAIN , and others. We’ll analyze: Their purpose, audience, and engagement strategies How they facilitate networking, deal flow, and collaboration What makes them successful and where there are gaps 2️⃣ Technology & Platform Analysis Beyond the communities themselves, we also want to assess the software platforms they run on. While The Engine is built on DISCO , we want to compare it to other tools to ensure we are using the best solution. This analysis will cover: Features like CRM, integrations, and user experience Costs and accessibility Strengths and weaknesses compared to other platforms
