In this episode, hear from the Executive Director of Start Alberta, Samanta Jovanovic. Samanta shares with us the organization's inception and how collaborative efforts between the A100, Alberta Enterprise Corporation, Venture Capital Association of Alberta and many community partners helped make it a reality. As our province continues to be shaped by start-ups and investments, Samanta is spearheading a depth of understanding of these arenas with Start Alberta. Under her guidance, we gain the ability to shed light on the total number of start-ups and scale-ups in our province as well as provide data on the tech industry that can inform and influence entrepreneurs, investors and policymakers alike.
