Tapping Into Your Network
|
HalTech is part of the Ontario Network of Entrepreneurs (ONE), a broad network of non-profit organizations designed to help Ontario's technology entrepreneurs transform their innovative concepts into commercial businesses.
On September 28th and 29th, members of the ONE ecosystem held their annual conference in Toronto. HalTech, along with our network members, key stakeholders and government partners, participated in keynote presentations and workshops. The message was clear: a Regional Innovation Centre (like HalTech) is the prime connection for entrepreneurs, SMEs, corporate partners and regional organizations in the local community who want to collaborate on technology innovation and grow their business. It's time to get to
know HalTech!
"Today's technology innovation is a fast moving, dynamic activity that will only be relevant and thrive in an open and collaborative environment. It's created by the exchange and fusion of great ideas, with the hope of becoming the next game-changing commercial innovation that will amaze and excite us. We need more exposure to these great technology ideas and more opportunities to develop them into promising new businesses in Halton. Through the ONE ecosystem, HalTech provides entrepreneurs a platform for that opportunity," says Rina Carlini, HalTech's CEO and President.
By tapping into HalTech's network, you will find a wealth of technology knowledge and business experience. It's easy to get onboard with HalTech - join our LinkedIn Group, attend monthly events, or signup to become a Volunteer Mentor to help other entrepreneurs in our community.
HalTech is your catalyst for technology innovation and business growth.
