🚀 Startup Atlantic was proudly represented by Lindsay Murray, CAE at the Annual CEO Summit of Canada's Tech Network | Réseau Tech Canada (CTN) on September 25 🎤 Lindsay had the opportunity to present how Startup Atlantic is driving collaboration, innovation, and growth across the Atlantic startup ecosystem. The summit brought together inspiring CEOs from across the country, including Platform Calgary, North Forge, Communitech, TechAlliance of Southwestern Ontario, Accelerate Okanagan, Innovate Niagara, and many more. The presentation focused around how we look to elevate the region through joint efforts that lead to some thought-provoking and engaging questions. A special thank you for the invitation to present from Beth Bailey and the CTN team, and Doug Robertson from Venn Innovation who hosted the group. #StartupAtlantic #CTNSummit #Innovation #AtlanticCanada #Leadership #Collaboration
