StartupIndex: A Great Resource for Canadian Startups
The guys behind StartupNorth and a number of other initiatives, have recently launched StartupIndex, which they describe as, “…a free, community-based index of technology startups and investors in Canada.”
It’s similar to CrunchBase and TraveVibes.
This is a much-needed addition to the startup scene in Canada. It’s great for Canadian startups but also for others, around the world, to get a detailed glimpse into what’s going on here.
Anyone can update entries, but I believe they’re approving them all manually. Each startup’s entry can include basic information - size of company, industry, blog RSS feed, investor information, etc. Over time you can see more and more data and content appearing for each startup’s profile (and for investors), which will make this a must-use resource.
