Last Tuesday at Philthy McNasty’s off of Brant the diverse innovation occurring within the Golden Horseshoe region was celebrated. The turn-out was once again stellar and the buzz at the end of the evening when the discussions took place was infectious. I heard back from all 16 presenters, I think, saying that they received some form of valuable guidance or made a positive and helpful connection.

I walked away from the evening once again proud of all that’s occurring in our region. From innovations in hearing aid technology to modular support accessories for wheelchairs and a few web based technologies… the start-up community in Hamilton and the Halton region is healthy, which was so great to see.

Thanks to everyone who helped make the night a success as well as all of the attendees who came to help support the ideas, but especially the presenters who passionately shared their thoughts.

Welcome to the conversation.

Hi, I'm Fraser and this is my personal site where I write about the things I'm interested in: start-up strategy, the web, music, and life.

My days are spent commercializing emerging technologies. Currently I'm helping to deliver the promise of semantic web to the consumer market at AdaptiveBlue. Previously I was at Trivaris, a Canadian seed stage investment firm.

I am a co-founder of Innovation Night, a community driven event supporting entrepreneurship in Canadian and US cities.

Here's what I'm doing right now:
