For the third year in a row, we are excited to present FundFest, a half day of content for venture investors at Startupfest. Back by popular demand, Peter Walker of Carta will set the table with a state of the market keynote. The rest of the program will focus on investing in the current climate of economic and political transition. We are also bringing back our emerging manager showcase to shine a light on the next generation of Canadian fund managers.
Here’s a snapshot of the full lineup:
- Keynote – Data driven state of the market with Peter and John Rikhtegar from RBCx
- Spotlight on Canadian corporates – featuring speakers from Canadian Tire, Circle K, Deloitte Ventures and National Bank
- Emerging manager showcase – featuring Amiral Ventures, Esplanade Health Tech Ventures, FutureSight, GTM Fund, Telegraph VC and Sandpiper Ventures
- Canadian growth panel – hosted by Senia from Harbourvest. Panelists to be announced soon.
- And of course, lots of time for networking!
We continue to work on FundFest because we love community building and think that “the best way to make sure that the party happens is to host it”. We are grateful to get to work with so many excellent speakers and the awesome Startupfest team. FundFest requires a Startupfest pass. You can get your ticket here. If you are an emerging manager, we have a special discount code for you, please contact Isaac or email info@penderventures.com to get more information. We hope to see you in Montreal!
