SUMMARY:A toast to Halifax tech | Welcome FreshBooks to its new home in Halifax
DESCRIPTION:About this event\nNova 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. \nBuilding 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. \nThis event will bring local technology and business leaders together to meet\, socialize\, and learn from one another: \nJeff 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. \nAmanda 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 launches\, Chart of Accounts\, proving that accounting software is anything but boring. \nDrinks and appetizers will be available. \nCome join us as we celebrate FreshBooks’ new home in the province. \nQuestions:\nIf you have questions about the event — or if you’d just like to say hello to the FreshBooks team — please reach out to events@freshbooks.com \nFreshBooks\, a leading cloud accounting software\, is changing the way business owners manage their books. Loved by paying users in 160 countries\, FreshBooks is known for 10x Stevie award-winning customer support. With 500+ employees worldwide\, FreshBooks has raised more than $250 million dollars in funding\, and has ambitious plans to continue its global expansion. \nTo learn more about FreshBooks’ open roles\, check out the company’s careers page. \nHalihax\, a wordplay on Halifax and Hacking\, is a community organization based in Halifax\, NS with a mission to inspire\, connect\, and grow the technology community of Atlantic Canada. Founded in 2014\, Halihax provides an online channel for discourse\, hiring\, and a recurring calendar of meet-ups and events to connect the broader Halifax startup and technology community. \n
