Helping businesses pivot through technology

Many businesses continue to face challenges during the pandemic, particularly in transitioning to new technologies in an increasingly digitized workspace.

The University of Windsor recently launched the EPIC Nimble program to help Windsor-Essex businesses use technology to create new revenue streams or pivot to a new business model – ultimately ensuring they stay competitive in a fast-changing marketplace.

In collaboration with WEtech Alliance and the WindsorEssex Small business Centre, the program is open to any existing for-profit business in the region that is currently facing challenges due to COVID 19.
