The C100,  Real Ventures, iNovia Capital and BDC Venture Capital have collaborated to bring the Montreal tech entrepreneur community a major event about the "What" and the "How" of building successful tech companies at high speed.

Accelerate MTL kicks off at 2:00pm on Thursday, March 31st with "Do More Faster: Techstars Lessons to Accelerate Your Startup", a keynote and open Q&A session with Brad Feld, co-founder of Techstars and Managing Director of the Foundry Group, investor in Zynga.

Brad will be followed by a panel of leading C100 seed investors and VCs from the US and Canada who will share what they think it takes to get their money and build world class companies from your own backyard.

Not to be missed is the final portion of the program - keynotes from Dave McClure, the Founder of 500 Startups, and Howard Lindzon, Founder of Stocktwits - to be followed by an interactive Q&A with both Dave and Howard.

Come and mingle and network with entrepreneurs, VCs and angels who've done it and want to support the next generation of great Canadian entrepreneurs.
