Impact Speaker – EO ONE Canada National Conference
Presented by Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) Canada


Doug was honoured to deliver his signature keynote, "Exponential Entrepreneurship: Mastering the Art of Serial Business Growth," at EO ONE Canada—the annual national conference of Entrepreneurs’ Organization, bringing together over 300 entrepreneurs from across Canada and around the world.



Speaking to a room full of high-performing founders and visionaries, Doug took the audience deep into the mind of an exponential entrepreneur—someone driven not just to build multiple businesses, but to pursue them simultaneously with the intent of making a meaningful, lasting impact. Through authenticity and vulnerability, he shared the raw realities behind the entrepreneurial journey: navigating burnout, managing chaos, and overcoming the emotional toll of scaling ventures while staying mission-focused. At the same time, he illuminated the extraordinary rewards that come with choosing this path—clarity, opportunity, and exponential growth.


Doug extends his sincere thanks to the EO ONE Canada selection committee for the opportunity to share his journey, and to be part of such an energizing and purpose-driven gathering of entrepreneurial leaders.
