The 2nd edition of StartupCampMontreal is due this upcoming thursday at la SAT, May 15th, from 6.00pm.

The event is dedicated to technology startups, the main feature being 5 new startups pitching the crowd about their product and business plans. You can view here a report about the first edition. This time, we will have:

Startyourtube allows anyone to create their own youtube video website, around a community (see last post)
Vencorps wants to do crowdsourced funding, which would be a revolution

The guys from Embrase are also bringing in Dan Mothershill and Austin Hill as keynote speakers. From what I saw last time, there was also lots of networking going on and also a section for other startups who want to present a demo, making startupcamp an unmissable event for this week.
