Toronto Start-up Index - March 2008

Posted by Greg Andrews on Sat, March 15, 2008 11:14 AM · Filed under Toronto , Start-up Index · 7 Comments

The index ranks Toronto area start-ups based on an average of Alexa and Compete traffic rankings. Criteria and other details are available on the Start-up Index page.

This month Gigpark made a big jump after officially launching last month and getting some good new and old media exposure. After some minor smack talk and minor number shifting, iBegin took the top spot from b5media.

If you have any suggestions for companies to add to the index, please post them in the comments for this post.
