No PowerPoints. No Judges. No Prizes. Just straight exposure. DemoCamp is an annual event for the Atlantic Canadian startup ecosystem to come together and showcase their innovative technologies to their peers, while reaching potential new customers or investors, as well as the rest of the community.
