Company mission

41% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

Instead of University, many aspiring engineers choose to attend bootcamps or online courses. This growing industry is being led by Lighthouse Labs in Canada.

The course provider differentiates itself from others by focusing largely on project-based work while fostering community support and mentorship among its alumni.

Next for the education provider is doubling down on its business accelerator. While this promises to be a synergistic revenue stream, the company must also make sure it continues to adjust its courses in line with market trends.
