THE BEST OF SAAS NORTH
Hey SAAS NORTH friends!
We are hard at work planning our fifth-annual conference (!!!) – how time flies! Looking back it’s hard to believe how much we’ve grown in the last 5 years… so we’re taking a deep breath to reflect on the best of SAAS NORTH.
Having talked to some of the attendees and speakers who were at the very first SAAS NORTH way back in 2016, we can’t help but feel a sense of accomplishment. Just sayin’. Since 2016, SAAS NORTH has attracted almost 4000 attendees and over 1700 companies…We didn’t create this community, but we gave it an annual place to meet!
I love being surrounded by innovators in tech. SAAS NORTH Conference is always equally insightful & inspiring!

So many leading entrepreneurs and investors have graced our stage: Michele Romanow, Bruce Linton, Carol Leaman, Tobi Lutke, Harley Finkelstein, Steli Efti, David Ossip, Michelle Zatlyn, David Skok, Cherry Miao, David Cancel, John Sicard, Terry Matthews and so many-many more. Not only have we seen a great number of SaaS thought-leaders, but we also increased the number of female speakers to 48% as part of our commitment to diversity.
Thank you SAAS NORTH Conference for having me speak on Canada’s rapidly changing fundraising landscape and building Clearbanc.If you’re a SaaS company, you’ll want to come to the next conference.
The amount of founders and service providers you will meet is insane. – Michele Romanow, Serial Entrepreneur, Co-Founder Clearbanc, Dragon on Dragons’ Den
One of our favourite things about SAAS NORTH is watching fast-growing startups meet with potential investors. We take particular pride in hosting the largest live audience for a pitchfest in Canada, where promising startups have a chance to pitch for a chance to win $20,000 in prizes.
This year, as we celebrate our fifth anniversary, we’ll be sharing with you our favourite SAAS NORTH moments from the last five years… So watch for that.
-The SAAS NORTH team.
