StoneShare is a Bootstrap Awards Finalist

I’m proud that my company StoneShare has been nominated as a finalist in Ottawa’s Bootstrap Awards as one of the fastest-growing self-funded startups in the last three years. Here’s the press release:

OTTAWA (January 31, 2012) – Following a record number of nominations, Exploriem today announces the finalists of the 2012 Bootstrap Awards. Finalists in the 12 categories were narrowed down from a pool of 97 nominations received in the last six weeks.

“This year we see a 45 per cent increase in nominations which is testament to the self capitalized talent and growing entrepreneurial culture in Ottawa” says Dr Bruce Firestone, Executive Director of Exploriem and mentor to many local businesses.

Winners will be announced at the awards event and tradeshow from 10.30am to 2pm at the Centurion Conference Centre on the 23rd of February, 2012. Ottawa based Liverpool Court – who manage all of the audio visual for Bluesfest – have stepped in to help winners maximize their post event publicity. After the awards, each winner will receive a vignette showing an overview of their company including footage of their win and acceptance speech. Mayor Jim Watson has also confirmed his attendance at the awards.
