The 100% reinvented Soirée Mtl inc.

In this eventful year, the Mtl inc. team had to roll up its sleeves to continue its mission in 2021: provide grants and support for close to 40 startups.
Thanks to the Soirée Mtl inc., which usually takes the form of a gala, we are able to donate all of the revenues to our cause.

Of course, this year, everything was revisited. After a donation campaign, made possible by the sponsorship of our finalists for the Prix Mtl inc. by 10 generous companies *, we held the Soirée Mtl inc. in an “hybrid” style, on November 26.

The Mtl inc. Laureates and all the speakers convened in the superb Happening studio. The whole thing was broadcasted live on a virtual event platform where online participants could connect.

More than 250 participants attended and 228 connections were made!

During the one-hour broadcast, participants watched:

• a throwback of the year 2020 for Montréal inc. and a review of the ecosystem;
• the presentation of the Prix de la Mairesse by Valérie Plante received by Isabelle Bettez;
• the finale for the Prix Mtl inc.;
• and several entertainment bits such as a prize draw and an artistic performance.

Winner of the Mtl inc. 2020 award

The Prix Mtl inc., presented by Desjardins, was awarded to Jonathan Hershon Saint-Jean of Pathway Medical, the entrepreneur of the year 2020!

Congratulations to the 9 other Laureates and finalists of the Prix Mtl inc. : Bliinx, CHK PLZ, Grad4, Mate Libre, Mme L’Ovary, Myelin, Precare, RailVision, VitalTracer
