CURRENTLY, MORE PARTICIPANTS ARE INTERESTED IN ATTENDING THIS EVENT THAN THE VENUE'S CAPACITY CAN ACCOMMODATE.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT ALL EVENTS ARE ON A FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS. Thinking about taking on an industry giant? Pick up some lessons from Vancouver’s burgeoning financial technology sector.
Hosted by
Progressa, this event brings together a mix of investors, high profile startups, and early-stage up-and-comers who are making banks and traditional financial institutions take notice. Find out how they identify market opportunities, the unique ways they are raising money, why some are trying to beat the banks while others prefer to join them, and how one is acquiring customers without spending a penny on AdWords (or any other advertising for that matter).
This event will feature an expert panel of representatives from
Progressa,
Conconi Growth Partners,
Wealthbar, and others. Also, get the chance to meet the people behind
Cassia Research,
Adventu,
