Atlantic Canadian Startup Data 2016

Entrevestor 2016 Atlantic Canada Startup Survey

For the fourth year, we're surveying startups across Atlantic Canada to develop metrics on the community. We'd love to include your data. We will publish some of the aggregated findings later in the year, which will be available free to anyone. We'll also prepare a report on the data for specific clients. We do NOT publish data gathered from individual companies. 
 
The results of this survey help key decision-makers -- governments, corporations, investors -- understand what is happening in the East Coast startup community. And it helps us at Entrevestor finance our operations so we can continue reporting on the growing startup community.
 
Please take three minutes to complete this form, filling is an many of the fields as you can. If there is any particular question you feel uncomfortable answering, please just leave it blank. Please call me at 902 401 2048 with any queries. 

Take care and thanks,

Peter Moreira.
