Canada’s innovation ecosystem is thriving like never before. Founders from coast to coast are seizing new technologies to reinvent and modernize traditional industries from the top down.
In this special episode of What The Tech, we’re launching our Founders and Friends series. Each episode, a member of the North American tech community invites a new guest for a candid roundtable on what it takes to build a startup in today’s market.
This week, we’re joined by our friend Andrew Gaudry, Business Development Associate at Broderick Capital. Andrew helps Canadian entrepreneurs accelerate their growth by connecting them with the right capital and strategic advice. Broderick Capital’s cross-industry network spans the country, and their partnership with Green Acre Capital—Canada’s first cannabis venture capital fund—helps fast-growing startups in this sector scale even faster.
How to set up your startup for success
Joining Andrew at the mic is Venky Weylagro, Founder & CEO of MD Connected, a Broderick Capital portfolio company. Venky’s mission at MD Connected is to transform healthcare by delivering telehealth services to Canadians nationwide. Their telemedicine clinics cut wait times from days to minutes—without compromising quality of care, and with a focus on improving health outcomes across the country.
The work Venky leads—and Andrew supports—isn’t just meaningful, it’s powered by cutting-edge technology and deep R&D. In this episode, we explore the current landscape for startups and healthcare, Andrew and Venky’s unique approach to building a business in 2023, and what’s next on their horizon.
