A toast to Halifax tech | Welcome FreshBooks to its new home in Halifax

Waterfront Warehouse 1549 Lower Water Street, Halifax

About this event Nova Scotia is becoming one of Canada's leading technology and innovation hubs. For the first time in generations, Nova Scotians can stay where they love (no offense, Ontario), and the best and brightest from other parts of the country and around the world are flocking to Canada's ocean playground. Building on this momentum, FreshBooks -- a Canadian-founded global tech unicorn -- is putting down roots in Nova Scotia with a goal of hiring at least 50 new FreshBookers across Research & Development, Sales, Customer Support, and more in the coming years. To celebrate, FreshBooks has teamed up with Halihax to bring the city's technology community together on November 10th in a truly Nova Scotian way -- for a kitchen party on the waterfront. This event will bring local technology and business leaders together to meet, socialize, and learn from one another: Jeff Andersen, co-founder of Halihax, will introduce the Halihax organization, history of the community, and give a first look at the results from the 2022 Halihax Community Survey. Amanda Jacob (Design), Richard Schaefer (Engineering), and Carmine De Leon (Product Management) from FreshBooks will share the ups (and downs) of building one of the company's newest product […]
