In an increasingly digital world, the importance of community is more vital than ever. For Cory York, CEO and Co-Founder of Webware.ai, hockey has been more than just a sport—it has shaped his life, his values, and the mission behind our digital marketing platform. His journey is not just a personal one but a story of resilience, community support, and how building meaningful relationships can lead to lasting impact. This philosophy is at the core of Webware.ai, where we strive to help small businesses find their voice and thrive.

Meet Cory York: From the Ice to Digital Leadership

Cory York’s story begins on the hockey rink, where he found not only a passion but also a sense of belonging. Growing up, hockey wasn’t just a sport for Cory—it was a lifeline. At a time when he felt lost, the camaraderie and teamwork of hockey helped anchor him and gave him a purpose.

The lessons he learned on the ice—resilience, perseverance, and the value of teamwork—have followed him throughout his life and into his business journey. After overcoming personal struggles, Cory found a deeper calling in helping others, and hockey remained a constant reminder of the power of community. It was this sense of unity and purpose that fueled his desire to give back.

Recognizing the life-changing impact of sports, Cory has been passionate about sponsoring youth hockey teams, ensuring that no child is denied the opportunity to experience the same sense of community and growth that he did. His commitment to helping young athletes extends beyond the rink, inspiring a mission of empowerment and support that runs through the veins of Webware.ai.

Building Webware.ai with Purpose

When Cory co-founded Webware.ai, he wanted to do more than create a marketing platform. His goal was to empower local service-based businesses by providing them with the tools and strategies needed to succeed in an ever-evolving digital landscape. Whether it’s home services, legal professionals, or wellness providers, Cory has always believed that small businesses are the backbone of strong, thriving communities.

At Webware.ai, we understand the challenges that service-based businesses face—limited time, resources, and the overwhelming task of navigating digital marketing. Cory’s personal journey, filled with challenges and triumphs, drives our mission to offer an all-in-one digital marketing platform that simplifies the process and delivers results. His passion for supporting local businesses reflects his belief in building authentic relationships that generate trust and long-term success.

The Influence of Hockey on Our Mission

Hockey didn’t just teach Cory about community; it inspired him to build a company centered around those same principles. Webware.ai’s involvement in local youth hockey teams is more than sponsorship—it’s about creating opportunities, fostering resilience, and bringing people together. Much like the lessons Cory learned on the ice, we believe that teamwork, perseverance, and the power of community are key ingredients for success.

Through our partnership with local hockey initiatives, we emphasize our commitment to connecting with families and promoting healthy, active lifestyles. These values align directly with the ethos of small business owners who are also striving to make a difference in their communities. Cory actively shares this vision with our clients, encouraging them to invest in their own communities through sponsorships, partnerships, and local involvement.
