Welcome Platform Technologies Inc., a local tech company from Sarnia, has been selected as one of the 48 Ontario tech startups to join the ICT Mission to Collision Conference. This conference is considered one of the largest and most influential tech conferences globally, attracting over 30,000 leaders from the global tech community each year.
The Government of Ontario has invited a select group of Ontario companies to join an export business mission to Collision 2024. Collision is North America's fastest-growing technology conference, with the 2023 event attracting 36,370 attendees, including 860 investors and more than 1,490 startups from 118 countries.
This selection highlights Welcome Platform's outstanding mission and promise in the technology field, emphasizing its innovative contributions and the global impact it is poised to achieve.
Welcome Platform Inc. was incubated by TMRRW Labs, a venture studio born out of local communications and technology firm TMRRW INC. The company closed its seed fundraising round earlier this year, backed by VERGE Capital, TMRRW Labs, and six angel investors, five of whom are from Sarnia.
The Welcome Platform builds community onboarding apps designed to serve the unique needs of newcomers. The new core technology platform was completed in February of this year, and the team is now in active conversations with several communities in each province across Canada, as well as other post-secondary institutions and players in the private sector.
"We fundamentally believe that technology is going to be at the core of a holistic solution to help manage and welcome new Canadians in this country. We're building tools that will improve the social, emotional, financial, and overall wellness of new Canadians. It needs to be done, and we're happy to be the ones to do it." - Liwordson Vijayabalan, President, Welcome Platform Technologies Inc.
The event will provide an exceptional platform for showcasing the Welcome Platform product, as well as providing networking opportunities with industry leaders, potential partners, investors, and customers from around the world.
