If you’re interested in sending feedback on Montreal’s StartupDigest, we’d be happy to hear it either on Quora or by email. What do you think? Do you have any helpful suggestions?
This Tuesday, the middle of the week is practically sagging with startup events as we approach the Fete St. Jean long weekend. Tuesday you could busy yourself with CEIM’s best practices for startups workshop, geek out with the girls on crowdsourced fudning or commune with your Rails brethren. Wednesday is the night when you’re encouraged to speed date to find your next co-founder.
