R.I.C. Centre's speaker series of 10 consecutive monthly breakfast events gets underway on September 16th with How to Create a Successful Business Model at the University of Toronto Mississauga Faculty Club.

If you follow the Web 2.0 space in Canada, then you know all about Octopz thanks to a series of awards they have strung together in 2008 - Top Startup at CIX, KPMG Web 2.0 PICK 20, Branham Top 25 IT Up and Comers, and IDC's 10 Canadian Web 2.0 Companies to Watch to name a few. So, Octopz's McKenzie should know a thing or two about creating a successful business model.
