Chapter 1: From Conquering Mountains to Conquering Entrepreneurship
Speaker: Kevin Allen
This tale is of two friends (Kevin and Trevor), who are as close as brothers. Eagar to leave their 9 to 5 jobs and explore something more creative and meaningful, the two friends embarked on an exciting journey that would transform their life. Ignited by the passion and fire they have for climbing mountains, the two friends set out to open Brampton’s very first rock climbing gym. By March 2017, their dreams became a reality, and the idea of owning their own business became very real. The sport of rock climbing is no ordinary sport, for many it’s a challenging obstacle that tests your strength endurance and perseverance. For Kevin and Trevor, rock climbing is a way of life and a way to bring the community together. Come learn about how these two friends with a passion for a single sport, led them down the path of uncertainty and success.
My name is Kevin Allen and I am one of the owners of Toprock Climbing in Brampton. Growing up I never knew what I wanted to do when I was older. It wasn't until after I graduated from University that I realized how important it was to enjoy what you do for a living. Looking at lots of options, opening a climbing gym was my best course of action since it combined my passion for climbing with entrepreneurship. We opened Toprock in 2017, we have learned so much and continue to grow year on year.
