Collision 2024 has come and gone, leaving behind a whirlwind of innovation, inspiration, and invaluable connections. This was a landmark event for us at Savvy-CFO, marking our first participation in the Alpha Startup Program. It was fascinating as we had the opportunity to step on stage and showcase how Savvy-CFO is reshaping the future of work. Here are some highlights from an action-packed three days at Collision 2024.
AI Everywhere: The Dominant Theme
One of the most striking observations from this year's conference was the number of AI startups. From AI platforms designed to help you future-proof your career, like Skip Round, to AI platforms designed to optimize the structure of hybrid workplace strategies and how they use their real estate, such as Verinova, AI was the buzzword on everyone's lips. The AI gold rush has started, and it's exciting to think about the potential impact these startups could have on solving problems for consumers and businesses. It will be interesting to look back in 5 years to see which AI Startups have delivered deep value to customers and which will fall by the wayside. The future is bright, and the pace of technological advancement shows no signs of slowing down.
Alpha Startup Program: Our Launchpad
Being part of the Alpha Startup Program was an incredible opportunity for Savvy-CFO. This program gave us a unique platform to connect with other innovative startups and industry experts. Our booth was a hub of activity, drawing interest from attendees eager to learn about our solutions for helping ambitious Canadian business owners. We had numerous engaging conversations that increased our visibility and offered us fresh perspectives on enhancing our product and services.
Showcasing Savvy-CFO: A Glimpse into the Future of Work
One of the most thrilling moments for us was participating in the Startup Showcase. Under the theme of the future of work, I was grateful for the opportunity to showcase Savvy-CFO and how we’re making financial expertise more accessible to businesses while building a platform that provides greater career satisfaction and fulfillment for our financial consultants. The positive reception from the audience reaffirmed our belief in the value and potential of Savvy-CFO. Seeing our hard work recognized and appreciated by such a diverse and knowledgeable crowd was gratifying, many of whom stopped by our booth afterward for a chat.
Canadian Landscape: A Need for Policy Shift
Collision 2024 also highlighted the vibrant entrepreneurial spirit in Canada. The Canadian landscape is full of budding, ambitious entrepreneurs eager to make their mark on the world. However, for these startups to thrive, there needs to be a shift in policy to provide a better chance for success. More supportive policies could foster innovation, provide better funding opportunities, and create a more robust ecosystem for startups to grow and compete on a global stage.
