February 22, 2019

By: Dennis Ensing

We had an excellent turnout to our February Investor Meeting, held on Thursday the 21st, including several invited guests that were interested in what we do and how we do it. The monthly meetings are a core element of our offering to curate deal flow for our members to consider as investment opportunities in their portfolios.

Snapshots of the 3 ventures who presented this morning are included below. Deeper dives with company principals are also scheduled as noted below – the details of the location and dial-in to be provided separately, or on request.

Investment Update: SmartTones closed a follow-on investment this month and last calls are being made for Chalk, Fable Tech and SensOR Medical. If you are still interested, please contact me ASAP.

Event Update: Our next Investor Meeting is scheduled for 7:30 am on Thursday March 21 in the MVP Lab at the Convergence Centre in Western’s Discovery Park. Please let me know if you are an accredited investor and would like to attend.
