The C100, iNovia Capital, Real Ventures and BDC Venture Capital collaborated to bring the Montreal tech entrepreneur community a major event about the "What" and the "How" of building successful tech companies at high speed.
The event kicked off with "Do More Faster: Techstars Lessons to Accelerate Your Startup", a keynote and open Q&A session with Brad Feld, co-founder of Techstars and Managing Director of the Foundry Group, investor in Zynga.
Brad was followed by a panel of leading C100 seed investors and VCs from the US and Canada (Chris Albinson of Panorama Capital, Chris Arsenault of iNovia Capital, Robert Simon of Ariva Capital, Fred Destin of Atlas Ventures and Jean-Sebastien Cournoyer of Real Ventures) who shared what they think it takes to get their money and build world class companies from our own backyard
The final portion of the program was keynotes from Dave McClure, the Founder of 500 Startups, and Howard Lindzon, Founder of Stocktwits - followed by an interactive Q&A with both Dave and Howard.
An awesome event that attracted over 550 Entrepreneurs and Investors.
Looking forward to the next chapter in Montreal's tech Community development.

You gotta Love Fred Wilson!
