Devan Rogers, Owner, Mad Science® of Maritimes
After leaving my corporate career, I chose Mad Science to pursue my passion for education—and I couldn’t be happier. The hands-on, fun approach truly sparks kids’ curiosity and love for science. Since purchasing the franchise in 2018, we’ve seen steady growth and endless excitement. It’s the best decision I ever made!
Anita Mishra, Owner, Mad Science® of SF Bay Area
I have owned Mad Science® of Toronto for over 30-years! What I thought was going to be a 5-year stepping stone to a career, ended up becoming an awesome life that provided me with the unique opportunity for me to unite my passion for business with my desire to make the world a better place for children of all ages. Through this journey, I have been fortunate to surround myself with awesome Franchisees with like-minded goals, I have been able to develop a loyal, caring and dedicated staff and most importantly I have been able to see the joy on a child’s face as they learn to discover the amazing world that we live in.
