Entrevestor’s data has become the benchmark for the Atlantic Canadian startup community in recent years. Each year, the team tallies up the total number of startups, and assesses their employees, funding and revenue, providing a vivid picture of how the community has evolved. It has been featured in the Financial Post, TechCrunch as well as content generated by NACO Canada and the Canadian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association. The upcoming event on the 14th will be the first opportunity to learn about our full results for all of Atlantic Canada. The highlights of the East Coast startup community in 2021 were intriguing and included: Meta Material listing on the Nasdaq and Innovacorp exiting for a $100M+ gain; CarbonCure winning the Carbon Xprize; and a strong performance in hiring, funding and revenue growth across the region.
