Accelerate Okanagan has announced that metabridge, one of Canada’s leading technology events, is the newest addition to the AO brand.
Metabridge provides top Canadian startup companies with direct access to key partners from the Silicon Valley and other technology centres across North America. Through its executive retreat format, metabridge provides networking, connecting and relationship building opportunities with global technology leaders through pitch competitions, VIP networking events and the Okanagan’s leisure activities.
“We have worked closely with the AO team over the past few years and are excited to add their firepower to metabridge,” said Steve Wandler, metabridge founder.
“This is an exciting opportunity for metabridge and AO to join forces and maximize the impact of their efforts in support of Canadian entrepreneurs.”
Jeff Keen, AO chief executive officer, says he has watched the growing success of metabridge over the past five years.
“By giving metabridge a permanent home at AO, we will be able to centralize resources, leverage the incredible networks that both AO and metabridge have developed over the years and provide an unparalleled level of support to founders and CEOs of startup technology companies,” he said.
Metabridge, powered by AO, will host its sixth annual event June 12 to 13 in Kelowna.
