The biggest tech event of the year rolled into Ottawa on Nov. 13. SaaS North, a two-day conference, attracted hundreds of tech leaders from across Canada and beyond to hear from keynote speakers such as digital marketing legend Neil Patel, Tealbook founder Stephany Lapierre, Certn founder Andrew Mcleod and many others.
The conference, which is co-produced by L-Spark, delivered a “notoriously tactical agenda” and took a deep dive into SaaS sector. Hot topics included growth strategies, mergers and acquisitions activity, company valuations and the “disruptive tsunami” of artificial intelligence.
In this episode of Techopia Live, Ottawa Business Journal publisher Michael Curran visited SaaS North to speak with Susan Richards of numbercrunch and Nick Quain of Invest Ottawa. The wide-ranging discussion explored the impact of SaaS North conference on Ottawa, how the SaaS business model is holding up, and how SaaS players are rushing to embrace AI.
