For Toronto - An SVASE Clone
via Zoli's blog, I learned of the Silicon Valley Association of Start Up Entrepreneurs. I dug into this and it looks to be an excellent group with a pretty good mission/message.
We need this in Toronto. So, simple enough, I hope. If you are interested in forming up a group of start up entrepreneurs, doing much of what SVASE does in the Valley, please send me a note, leave a comment here, etc, and next year we'll work together to make it happen.
Rick, my business partner, and I would be very interested. Thank you!

Doesn't the MaRS Centre have a program that serves this exact function?

Can't disagree we need stronger community organizations in Toronto that includes entrepreneurs, developers, technologists, etc.

Why not use TVG to do some/all of what SVASE does?

Definitely agree with David. Love to help, love to participate. Wondering how a "startup inside a company" would fit in with something like this.
