Local coverage in the Calgary Herald newspaper about Garrett Camp’s visit back to Calgary and his sharing of the StumbleUpon.com startup experience at STIRR Canada’s inaugural event.
From the Herald article:
“We wanted to have [Garrett] back to Calgary to … help coach the people in the room to what do we have to do to make sure the next Garrett Camp, who might well be at one of the tables, has the opportunity to get mentored, funded and supported here so we can keep some of these great startup stories local, ” said Claudia Moore, a director of STIRR Canada and owner of Calgary-based technology company growth agent Material Insight Inc.“
And many thanks also to Techvibes for their support and coverage as well. Techvibes correspondent, Barcamp supporter, and technology intern, Cam Linke, came down from Edmonton to attend the Founders’ Table event. Thanks Cam!
