Pulse Innovation, a Halifax-based industry network for health professionals involved in commercializing innovative medical technologies, will host a “Startup Crawl” networking event in Halifax April 27 featuring headline-making supply chain software business Milk Moovement.

Inspired by the British convention of the pub crawl, in which participants visit a variety of community bars as part of a walking tour, the Startup Crawl will start at the Deloitte offices on the Halifax waterfront at 5:30 p.m.

Participants will visit four companies, Milk Moovement, threesixfive, Podstarter and Rafflebox, with a social gathering and networking opportunities at each location.

Milk Moovement, which last summer raised a US$20 million Series A funding round, sells supply chain management software for the dairy industry. Threesixfive is a service company specializing in video production, photography and animation. Podstarter helps podcasters develop and produce their content. And Rafflebox is a startup that operates an online platform for organizing charity raffles.

Participants are encouraged to walk between locations if they are able to and the weather is good, but if not, transportation will be available.

The Startup Crawl is free to join, and you can register here.
