I had such an amazing time last night and was privileged to be on the panel at Tech Thursday at the Kingshead. The all star panel (plus me) shared some incredible insights on Preparing for Investor Funding. A special thank you to the panel members Courtney Dragani, Iain Crozier and Matt Schaubroeck, you were all amazing! And of course, to the best moderator Arielle Land and host Paul Card and Manitoba Technology Accelerator crew. Thank you also to all the founders and business owners who introduced themselves and shared their unique stories. Hearing your journeys reminded me exactly why I started mine—and that is to help. Looking forward to connecting with all of you in the near future! #techthursday #investorfunding #startupjourney #businessgrowth #founderstories #entrepreneurship #startupcommunity #panelspeaker #networkingevent #leadership #winnipeg #skynetcfo

We wrote a recap last weeks Tech Thursday on 'what is a rules engine'! ICYMI👇 Why Use a Rules Engine? Empower Non-Technical Users: By externalizing logic, teams like compliance or risk management can directly update rules without engineering support. Scalability: Rules engines handle thousands of rules efficiently, ensuring systems remain robust as complexity grows. Flexibility: They adapt to frequent changes in business requirements, which would otherwise necessitate costly engineering overhauls. Compliance and Transparency: Many rules engines provide detailed reporting and auditing, essential for meeting regulatory standards.
