About Me

Hello, I'm Zachary Thurston!

I'm a Canadian entrepreneur, Esade Business School graduate (BITLASI), and Co-Founder of Renzo, a UK-based EdTech startup retraining mid-career professionals into the skilled trades.

My journey in business began with a desire to make a positive difference in the world and a love for problem-solving. At Esade, I studied Transformational Leadership and Entrepreneurship for Social Impact, and that foundation now shapes how I build. At Renzo, we combine blended e-learning, VR/XR simulation, and in-person workshops to help people move into rewarding careers.

Along the way, I've developed skills in Finance, Leadership, Digital Fabrication, and Software Development, working with languages and tools like Python, Swift, HTML, Excel, and more.

I focus on business development and building ventures that turn innovative ideas into tangible, impactful results. Whether you're interested in Renzo, social entrepreneurship, or the future of skills training, let's connect and explore what we can build together!
