The Firehood Angel Camp at SAAS NORTH last year was such a rich and unique experience. Winning was no doubt a highlight, however it’s the ongoing support and advocacy of the Firehood angel investors that takes the big W, for me! As a woman tech founder, these opportunities to build new bonds and strengthen community networks with investors who deeply care and want to create systemic level change is absolutely invaluable.

Participating in the Firehood Camp at SAAS NORTH was a game-changer for me! I had the opportunity to pitch Blanka to a room (actually it was a tent!) full of seasoned female investors and not only did I receive valuable feedback and insights that refined my approach, but I also had the opportunity to connect with some truly inspiring individuals. The connections I made during the Firehood Camp have turned into meaningful relationships that I’ve continued to nurture. A huge shoutout to the Firehood for creating such an empowering event.

Firehood Angel Camp at SAAS NORTH was unlike any other pitching experience I’ve had as an entrepreneur. The intimate, curated environment provided an opportunity to build relationships with incredible women entrepreneurs and investors from across Canada. Together with these entrepreneurs, we became an informal cohort, connecting regularly to offer support, celebrate the wins, and keep it real about the hard. I highly recommend Firehood Angel Camp!
