Is your business experiencing operational challenges during COVID-19, with issues such as:

  • E-commerce platform setup and marketing
  • Outdoor heating for restaurants and patios, or;
  • Local retail and food distribution

 

ventureLAB has sourced three local tech startups who have responded to the challenge, and their solutions are available free of charge until mid-March as part of the Digital Main Street Community Collaboration Program.

These services may be particularly relevant with the recently implemented public health measures. Main Street Businesses are welcome to apply by filling out this Expression of Interest by February 28, 2021. Upon receipt, we will reach out and facilitate introductions. 

Please share this information with your membership, and let us know if you have any questions. We hope to assist your membership network in taking advantage of these solutions!
