Art and business may seem like an odd couple, but it’s creativity, innovation and artistry – not technology or even R&D dollars – that will help companies win on a global scale. The combination of these elements = perfection.

Jason Flick, President and Co-Founder of Flick Software and You.I TV, always knew he was destined to be an entrepreneur. Prior to venturing out on his own, he worked at five different companies where he was inspired and mentored by each organization’s leaders.

Jason founded his first company, Flick Software, in 2000. With Flick Software still going strong, Jason started You.i Labs in 2008. You.i Engine is the interface engine for TV Everywhere that has advanced the beauty and responsiveness of multi-screen TV applications in radical ways. The publications Canadian Business and PROFIT named You.i to the 26th annual PROFIT 500, the ranking of Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies. The PROFIT 500 ranks Canadian businesses by their revenue growth over five years. You.i’s was 975%.
