Marco Pasqua was born with Cerebral Palsy and at the age of ten, Marco was invited to be the ambassador/host of the Timmy’s Christmas Telethon with local radio legend Red Robinson. This was his first time speaking in front of a large audience and while he realized the impact words could have, he had no idea speaking would later become his career.

Throughout his life, Marco has been involved with a number of organizations as a spokesperson, helping to spread advocacy for persons with disabilities across Canada. Some of his most memorable talks include TEDxStanleyPark, The United Way as an impact speaker, and The Duke of Edinburgh Awards.

In 2013, he was named “Entrepreneur of the Year” by the Self-Employment and Entrepreneur Development Society and was recognized in 2016 as a “Paul Harris Fellow” by Rotary International. Other accolades include the BC Business Top 30 under 30 list. He also wields the Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification and sits on the Province of BC's employment advisory committee the Presidents Group.
