The results are in and it’s time to announce the winners in the LPV10 Startup Competition. A panel of 7 judges casted their votes for the “Startup Most Likely to Succeed” and awarded Geotoko. From Judge Andre Charland’s comments: “It seems like all sorts of businesses big and small are going to need an easy way to take advantage of location based promos. This is like a quick and easy way to do that.” So, a huge kudos to Geotoko.

Venue Recommendations

Hello Vancouver! We’ve been getting a lot of emails and calls asking when our next Launch Party event will be. And now that the Olympics are over , and venues are freed up, we are working on finalizing the details for LPV9.

But I need your help…
I’ve been sourcing out venue after venue after venue but can’t seem to find a space that will fit all of us. I feel like I have looked at every venue from Gastown to Yaletown but it is hard to find a big enough space within our non-profit budget. So, I was hoping that you might have some venue recommendations for me.

This is what we need:
At our last event, we had over 400 attendees. And if you recall, it was pretty hot and cramped in Circa. This time around, we would like to have a bit more breathing room.

Capacity 500
Natural Lighting (preferred)
Bar and on-site kitchen
Wifi
Screens
Air Conditioning / Ventilation
Fantastic speaker system & working mic.

We are shooting to have our next Launch Party in mid May, early June.

If you are a Venue and would like to us to host our next LPV at your venue, please contact me at – sonia (at) bootup (dot) ca or if you have any recommendations, please leave a comment on this post.
