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.
Here’s a miniature version of the Standout Jobs profile (click the image for a full view):
Hey Ben,
I just wanted to tell you what a great job you are doing. I dig your concept and see it getting huge for you, man.
Great startup index concept… we could use one of these in Kansas City. Perhaps you could open source some code and spread the messages?
My company that I am actively seeking funding on, is in the education space, we create a custom portal for the students and faculty can send down messages to the students in a variety of media.
Eventually these students will be looking for jobs. Below are some of the projects I’m on…
Adiqus.com – College Success
College Success Training
Cultivate Greatness – Leadership Training & Personal Development
Online MBA Schools
Debt Training
Fix College Debt
Media Think Lab – Graphic Design Services Firm in Kansas City
Continued success to you my friend. We can tell that you are one of the good guys!
Successfully,
Travis Wright
Chief Innovations Officer
