One of the benefits of blogging about technology across Canada is the opportunity to meet and interact with innovative technology leaders everyday. During the last year, we’ve had the pleasure of covering some great people, startups, and events and are very excited about what 2011 promises for Canada’s Tech industry.
We’re starting to assemble our Digital Media People to watch lists for 2011 and this year we’re adding a Quebec list to our annual Ontario, Alberta, and BC watch lists.
This year we’d like your help. We want to know who you think is worth watching in the Digital Media space in 2011. If you could pick a handful of people in your community that you expect to make BIG news in 2011, who would they be?
But don’t restrict yourself to Founders – these people could be angel investors, young entrepreneurs, community evangelists, venture capitalists, or running the next company to be acquired by Google.
To give you an example of the kind of folks we’re after, have a look at last year’s alumni.
