About Celina Lovisotto

I live my life by one simple belief: you don’t need X to do Y. • You don’t need to be a runner to run a marathon: I proved that when I crossed the finish line of the Chicago Marathon (after only ever running 10 km the year before). • You don’t need to be a swimmer to complete a 70.3 Ironman: I learned that after swimming 1.9 km when I could barely make 50 meters at first. • And you don’t need to be a coder to build an app: I built and pilot-tested an MVP habit-formation app with zero technical background. That mindset of discipline, resilience, and playing the long game is how I approach everything I do. As a builder and entrepreneur, I co-founded and scaled a registered charity that raised over partnered with Lululemon, LUSH Cosmetics, and Knix, and expanded to six university chapters across Canada. I’ve led consulting projects for growing companies, launched digital products, and explored how AI and no-code tools can accelerate innovation and inclusion. Currently, I’m pursuing a Double Master’s in International Business (Queen’s University) and Management (ESSEC Business School), where I’ve joined the Digital Disruption Chair to deepen my understanding of how technology is transforming the way we work, learn, and connect. At my core, I’m driven by curiosity – to learn faster, push boundaries, and help teams innovate with intention. Whether in startups, tech, or strategy, I bring an athlete’s mindset: show up, put in the work, and trust that the results will follow. Always open to connecting with people building what’s next in tech, innovation, and impact.
