We’re in the middle of our campaign to get Atlantic Canadian startup founders and CEOs to complete our survey. We’re thrilled by the response and want to remind all startups that haven’t completed the 18-question questionnaire to please do so.

We’ve contacted a lot of people personally, and we’ll be posting reminders throughout this week to complete the survey. There are some companies that we haven’t heard from yet. We don’t want to send out more reminders – we really hate pestering people! So please just take TWO MINUTES and complete the survey. Just click here.

Thanks so much to the 100-plus entrepreneurs who have filled it out.  A huge thanks to Michelle Simms of the Genesis Centre for sparking a wave of responses from St. John’s on Friday. We’re going to have better data from Newfoundland and Labrador this year than ever before.

These surveys allow us to produce our data reports. It’s really important for our business and the Atlantic Canadian startup community at large. We believe it will help improve the ecosystem.

All your answers will be 100 percent confidential – we publish aggregated data but never divulge information on individual companies.

A few notes on the survey: We’re asking for metrics as of Dec. 31, 2017.  If there is information you choose not to reveal, just leave the slot blank.

The companies we’re targeting are majority-owned by Atlantic Canadians, commercializing technology and producing a product for the global market. We use the term “startup” but we’re not just looking for new companies. Most of the companies are several years old.
