History
Youth Enterprise was established as a section of the Ontario Youth Secretariat in 1985, and transferred with it to the Ontario Ministry of Skills Development in April 1985. Later that year, the Ontario Youth Secretariat was replaced by the Youth Employment Services Branch. In 1988, Youth Enterprise was renamed Start Up and its two loan programs, still named Student Venture Capital and Youth Venture Capital, were grouped under the Start Up program. In 1990, a reorganization of the Youth Employment Services Branch led to transfer of the Start Up unit and program to the Small Business Branch, Industry and Technology Division, Ministry of Industry, Trade and Technology, were the unit was renamed Youth Start-Up Capital Section. The section was transferred in 1991 to Domestic and Small Business Operations, within the same Division. Domestic and Small Business Operations was transferred in 1993 to the Sector Development Division of the new Ministry of Economic Development and Trade. The Youth Start-Up Capital Section ceased to exist, and the Student Venture and Youth Venture programs became the responsibility of the Serving Target Markets section of Domestic and Small Business Operations.
