Startup Open House returns to Ottawa Wednesday evening with a series of hubs across the city – and some welcoming companies in between – opening their doors to curious members of the public and prospective tech talent.
The annual event, which also runs in Toronto, Waterloo and Montreal, lets anyone in the city travel from startup to startup to get a sense of the work happening inside Ottawa’s tech community. More than 50 tech firms in Ottawa, including Fellow.app, Ruckify, Iversoft and Shopify, have registered to welcome visitors on Wednesday.
This is the first year Startup Open House is operated by Elevate, the annual Canadian entrepreneurship conference.
