Indoor beer festival continues to expand

Alumni Faron Benoit - I Heart Beer

Enterprise Business class of 2005, Faron Benoit, shares his journey of creating and building the popular I Heart Beer festivals across Ontario.

Benoit, who started his business in Brantford and also makes his home in the city, explained his professional background and the early beginnings of the festival.

Initially, I aimed for a career in finance, but I also eventually wanted to start my own business—which is why I went to Mohawk,” he said.
