About the event:
Inspired by television shows such as Dragon's Den and Shark Tank, this event will feature potential investors who determine if a few entrepreneurs have ideas that they would like to invest in. It will also focus on different sources of capital, such as traditional and non-traditional Financial Institutions, and Angel Networks, for a promising venture in need of financial support. Do you have what investors are looking for? Find out as this panel talks about investment opportunities they’d like to see—what works and what doesn’t. Learn what steps you can take to tap into various sources of capital that’s potentially available, and if you’re lucky, pitch your idea to the potential investors.

If you have a big idea that you'd like to get funded or if you are a potential investor interested looking for investment opportunities, please email gybif@firstfridays.ca. Last Call - (Application Submission Deadline: May 4th, 2016)
