Bio/Research

Dr. Laplume has a decade of experience working as a business and information technology consultant in corporate Canada. He has performed many roles, including business analyst, systems analyst, project manager, practice leader, and integration architect. He co-founded a data science start-up called LaunchScore.com, which used big data analytics to suggest optimal locations and business types for traditional small business entrepreneurs. His doctoral research used computer simulation and qualitative research to develop models of strategic innovation. After his PhD, he worked at Michigan Tech where he helped to develop the entrepreneurial ecosystem of the university and delivered entrepreneurship courses. His teaching philosophy combines the Harvard case method with the Socratic method, together with experiential projects.

He joined the Ted Rogers School of Management in the fall of 2018 and became director of the research-based graduate programs at Ted Rogers after being admitted to the Yeates School of Graduate Studies in 2019.
