StartupDrinks.ca, now in 10 Canadian cities (7)

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 · by Heri · Events, entrepreneurship

Awesome initiative by Raymond Luk and Robin Ahn, who are launching StartupDrinks.ca

StartupDrinks.ca

I’m amazed on how this picked up and there are now 10 Canadians cities joining the “movement”. I haven’t been able to be as active as I was before (which is an understatement, *cough*); and I’m glad to see Flow Ventures taking the lead and gathering tech entrepreneurs, and everyone interested in startups.

The Montréal StartupDrinks are of course due Wed 25th November, from 5.30pm @ Brutopia.

1215 Crescent Street, on Ste-Catherines Street.

For those who haven’t been yet, it’s an informal gathering, an opportunity to share, meet the Montreal tech entrepreneur community, to celebrate the launch of StartupDrinks.ca … and of course take a drink. Everyone’s invited, if you have a startup or not, if you’re a veteran or just someone considering launching a tech venture.
