1949-2024

(life)

Robert Dickie was born and raised in Montreal, receiving his training in electronics through the Motorola Institute of Technology. His working career began with General Electric, where he became the youngest regional manager in the company’s history, managing Communications in Eastern Canada. Following a change in the political scene in 1976, GE moved its Head Office to Toronto. With the move, Bob was one step closer to the creation of Spark. A number of years later, having accepted the position of V.P. with Layola, a $35M computer company, Bob had the opportunity to build on skills of upper management. After careful consideration, he decided that the corporate world was not the fit he wanted; and his entrepreneurial Spark began to flare.
