Continuing with the shout-outs to the entrepreneurs in whom we’ve invested recently ……
Marc Lefrancois and Marek Krepec at Oneeko have recently (beta) launched the upgraded version of their software solution that enables "click-to-collaborate" screen sharing with the utmost simplicity.
We also have two previously unannounced investments.
Whatsnexx (no website yet) is building it’s business from some technology and talent that has been spun out of TSX listed Komunik. The software is still in development and more info will follow as the company comes out of development.
Yona Shtern and Robert Gold are the Founders of Beyond the Rack, Canada’s answer to Gilt or Vente Privée. The company offers its online members luxury brand clothing and accessories, via limited time "flash sale" events. This business model has proven to be extremly successful in Europe – to the point that we were able to attract european co-investors to invest "across the ditch".
With all this activity we had better spend some time putting our own pitch together so that we have some more money to invest in these "opportunity" filled times !
