Demo Day (formerly Startup Showcase) is McGill Ventures' flagship event of the fall semester. It brings together student founders, early users, and investors from Montreal's startup and VC community. Selected startups will each give a five-minute live demo, built to be engaging and interactive, followed by a Q&A with the audience. Later in the evening, founders will join VCs on a panel about building and funding early-stage companies. Whether you're a founder, an investor, or a student curious about startups, come see what's being built at McGill and meet the people building it. Note: A raffle ticket is included with the purchase of each event ticket, giving you a chance to win a prize at the event! Founders: applications are open!
