Lavablast wins local round of 10th annual Québec Entrepreneurship contest (4)
Lavablast, which was featured recently on MontrealTechWatch, has won last week the local round of the Québec Entrepreneurship contest, a yearly competition organized by the Chamber of Commerce and other organizations like school boards.
Lavablast won in the Technology & Innovation category, with a cash prize and a one-year membership to the Chamber of Commerce.
It’s great to see a truly innovative company and its founders recognized by the whole business community, although it occured to me that they have already closed their first year of operations and were able to present a business model which was already field-tested, unlike other competitors who were still in the business plan phase. Nevertheless, I hope Lavablast gets more exposure from what they’ve done, especially in regards to students in high school and in universities, showing the new generation in Québec that it’s possible to start a successful software company.
Congratulations to Etienne Tremblay & Jason Kealey!
