The scholarship is open to students entering into their final undergraduate year with the award recipient being invited to participate in a mentorship opportunity with Adam.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to meeting certain academic requirements, students are asked to submit a written statement as part of their submission answering the question: In your experience, as an aspiring digital entrepreneur, how do you connect with an entrepreneurial story like Delvinia\u2019s?<\/p>\n<p>The university evaluates the submissions and Delvinia is not involved in the selection process. So, it\u2019s always interesting for us to hear how the recipient has connected with Delvinia\u2019s story. In her submission, Ramage identified with Delvinia\u2019s approach to technology and with Adam\u2019s journey as an entrepreneur.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe persistency possessed by Adam Froman is the same persistency that has encouraged me to excel in my field and studies, while understanding how to use advances in digital technology to stay three steps ahead of the competition,\u201d Ramage wrote,\u00a0adding, \u201cIt has been my dream to reach many and add value to what they see, and just like Delvinia, it is through digital innovations that I have found certainty in this dream.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Delvinia\u2019s award at Ryerson, along with a similar scholarship at the Schulich School of Business \u2013 Adam\u2019s alma mater \u2013 was created not only because Adam wanted to encourage the entrepreneurial spirit of students, but also to give back by partnering\u00a0with area universities to invest in next generation talent.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to Ramage on winning this year\u2019s award!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this week our CEO Adam Froman had the opportunity to present the Delvinia Innovation and Entrepreneurship Award at Ryerson University.
