Tuesday, Dec. 9th: Next Montreal Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast

The next Montreal Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast is scheduled for Tuesday, December 9th at 8am.

Remember: The location is Boccacinos on McGill St.

And, we have a great sponsor for this event as well! Google Montreal has stepped up to sponsor the breakfast.

Google has offered $8/person – which means each person attending will receive a ticket. That ticket is worth $8 when you pay. Anything you owe above $8 you will pay separately to the restaurant.

I want to thank Google Montreal for stepping up and sponsoring this event and showing their overall support for the growing Montreal tech entrepreneur community.

This will be the last event before 2009 — the next one will be in February. Remember, we’re now holding the Montreal Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast every 2 months.

Here are the details:

  • Who should attend? Anyone that’s into the tech and entrepreneur scenes in Montreal. That includes entrepreneurs, startup employees, angel investors, venture investors, service providers, students, etc. Every event sees new people, and hopefully the connections made turn into real value in the long-term.
  • When and where? Tuesday, December 9th at Boccacinos on McGill St. (downtown) at 8am-10am.
  • How do we connect? Stay connected using our Facebook Group.
  • How do we RSVP? It would be great if you RSVP’d so we have a sense of how many people are coming. You can do so using the Facebook Event listing.
  • Who is sponsoring? Google Montreal!

I want to also thank Tanya at Praized and Heri at Montreal Tech Watch for helping.

NOTE: If anyone wants to volunteer to hand out tickets at the event, that would be helpful.

NOTE: We will continue to look for sponsors for each event, but we can’t guarantee we’ll have one each time.


Sun Startup Essentials Sponsors Montreal Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast

Tomorrow is the Montreal Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast. It’s at a new location (Boccacinos on McGill College). Click the link above for all the details. In the meantime, I have a great announcement…

Sun Startup Essentials is sponsoring the breakfast! That’s right, breakfast is free. But please be reasonable…we don’t need any abusing their goodwill.

I was approached by Michal and Sandra about the opportunity. This is their first sponsored event for the SSE Bloggin’ Across Canada Series. Sun will introduce the Startup Essentials Program at various technology, startup and investor events across the country, and will be blogging about the Canadian Startup Landscape, highlighting stories about startups on http://blogs.sun.com/startup/ – and cross-blogging with http://www.embarkonit.com/blogs and Startup North.

It’s last minute, but if you have a story to share, as a startup, or want to reach out to Sandra or Mic (Sandra will be at the event too), you can email them. Just click their names above for email addresses.

At breakfast tomorrow, Sandra will take 5 minutes or so to explain Sun’s program and what she’s doing across the country. She may have some promotional material as well. And then she’ll be talking to as many people as possible, and promoting your startup stories.

I want to thank Mic and Sandra as well as Sun for being so generous. We’ll see you tomorrow at 8am.
