Gowlings Monthly TON "Starting your Start-Up Series" Presents:

 (160 Elgin Street, 26^th Floor)

Virtually Yours: Building a winning team through outsourcing

As access to capital continues to be a challenge for Ottawa Hi Tech Start-Ups, more and more companies are adopting the virtual and outsourcing business models.  R&D, production, staffing, sales/marketing, legal and finance are just some of the areas where you can have experienced resources without the costs associated with full time employees. Companies who adopt outsourcing are founded on the concept of focusing on doing what they do best, running lean, and building their IP and capabilities with the help of more experienced outside virtual resources

Please join us on May 11^th to hear an expert panel on outsourcing moderated by accomplished Ottawa Tech Media expert, Janet Eastman.  During this seminar, we will discuss various topics, such as how opportunities for outsourcing of non-core services have made the "virtual" company structure more achievable, and how these opportunities might be particularly relevant for Ottawa Start-Ups.   

Gowlings is very pleased to host Starting Your Start-Up, The Ottawa Network monthly event stream that combines quality networking with practical advice and insights from industry leaders and subject matter experts.   Starting Your Start-Up focuses on the business basics that are the foundation for launching and building a successful start-up in these promising and challenging times including financing, team formation, business & product development, sales, and marketing.
