Each week Stuart Clark, Derek Silva, and sometimes special guests break down the biggest stories in Canadian technology news. We talk about the big and small stories, and how they affect Canadians and their daily lives.
This week on Canadian Tech Podcast we have Erich Ko and Boyd Reid, founders of Hop In (https://www.hopintech.com/), a logistics software company getting people to work. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
This week on Canadian Tech Podcast we have Marc Antoine Caya, founder of goPeer. goPeer is Canada's first peer to peer lending platform focused on individuals, not businesses! You will hear about the hunt for off-the-shelf software, choosing to build a solution instead, securing sensitive data, and more. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Today on Canadian Tech Podcast we're speaking with Danish Yusuf, founder of Zensurance! Learn what it's like to build a software company in a highly regulated, conservative industry and what it means to raise funding for your startup. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Today on CTP we have Billal Qureshi, the Head of Mobile + Apps at Google Canada. We had a great conversation about how the pandemic has affected Canadian businesses, what tools small businesses can use to get in touch with customers and increase business, and what small business owners should keep an eye out for next. Billal's answer on that last one surprised me, it might surprise you too. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
