In the last year I have lived in San Francisco, Toronto, New York City and Vancouver, where our team currently resides.
Our team comes from a small city in Canada, called Saskatoon, where startups are few and far between. Dealflow, angel investing, strategic partners, mentors and basic startup information are scarce. The angel investing group that once was has disbanded, and is just getting started again. The fabric and tools necessary to scale, be disruptive and understand the true ideology of what it takes to build a startup, dramatically pales in comparison to the ‘Valley’ and ‘Alleys’ of the world.
