Testimonials
“Our bread and butter is extracurricular activities—lunchtime or after-school programs—which account for about 80 per cent of our business. The rest comes from special events, summer camps, corporate engagements, and birthday parties. But every franchise operates a little differently, tailored to its community.” – Karim Kezila, VP of Mad Science® franchise Montreal & Ottawa
“We spark children’s curiosity and imagination and instill a sense of wonder in STEM through hands-on engagement and fun activities. But we do this with purpose: to encourage children to love science and, ideally, consider careers in STEM. Without that end goal, it would all just be fun and games. There’s a real strategy behind everything we do.” – Ron Shlien, Co-Founder, Mad Science® Group, Inc.
