Startups: What we can learn from the latest market offerings in knowledge sharing and digital skills

We will present the latest startups that are scaling knowledge-sharing and digital skills. We have chosen portfolios from four venture capital firms based in Canada: Framework, Relay, Panache, and Inovia. These top-performing firms are investing in companies looking to transform various industries using technology. We will inform the staff and faculty of Concordia about some of these upcoming products. We understand that with access to information comes the responsibility to store and share documents within an organization. We also understand that technology and digital skill sets are an integral part of today's workforce.
