Get excited! The legendary Startup Grind is coming to our wonderful bilingual city of Montreal. We are very excited to be announcing the inaugural event with Greg Isenberg, Founder and CEO of 5By on November 21st, 2013 at 6PM.
5By is one of Montreal’s hottest startup that is having incredible growth and was recently acquired by Silicon Valley legend StumbleUpon. 5by scours the internet for the best videos, and hand-delivers the ones you want to watch. It’s curated, free, and awesome. Greg is a frequent speaker in the Montreal circuit, come meet him personally and learn about his journey through the various startups he has founded.
We aren’t just famous for our summer festivals, poutine, and maple syrup. Montreal has a burgeoning startup scene soon bound to be among the best in the world. The Notman House, a mansion in the downtown core gifted to the Montreal tech community, plays host to a series of increasingly impressive startups and is run by a top notch accelerator, FounderFuel. With its unique bilingual city status in all of North America, Montreal is home to incredible companies that have revolutionized their industries or simply created them out of thin air.
