Two VC firms looking to invest in early and seed stage startups

👋 Why was white space for innovation a hot topic this week? In our last event on lessons learned from multimillion dollar exits, local founders shared their perspectives on how it can open doors to innovation and expansion, and many other takeaways that were critical to their success.

If you’re itching for more insights like these while making new connections, we’ve got you covered with a lineup of events in the coming weeks — from a tech business book swap to our next morning coffee meetup in Burnaby. We also have #VTJTalks panels coming up that you don't want to miss. Learn about how to extend runway through grants, tax credits, and other financial incentives, and hear secrets to scaling world-class products and teams from leaders at Clio and Hootsuite — as well as TikTok’s first and former product manager.

Now onto today’s briefing. It’s 1,612 words: a four-minute read.
