Y Combinator

Y Combinator is a startup accelerator based in Mountain View, California, founded in 2005. It has pioneered a new funding model for early-stage startups by investing a modest amount of capital, typically around $150,000, in a large number of companies twice a year. Over a three-month program, Y Combinator collaborates closely with these startups to prepare them for investor pitches and enhance their business strategies. Each funding cycle concludes with Demo Day, where startups present to an exclusive audience of investors. Y Combinator focuses on various sectors, including business software, education, healthcare, and financial technology, among others. In addition to initial funding, it offers ongoing support through its extensive alumni network. Since its inception, Y Combinator has funded over 630 startups, contributing significantly to the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Silicon Valley and beyond.

Georgette Packaging

Seed Round in 2016
Georgette Packaging was launched in November 2013. My background as a mechanical engineer (McGill '07), the owner of a cupcake bakery in Northern Ireland, and an MBA grad (Ivey '13) has given me a unique interest in the needs of small businesses, and the Canadian manufacturing sector's ability to meet them. I'm very proud to say that all our products are manufactured in London, Ontario, Canada, my home-town. They have been lucky enough to be covered by the Globe & Mail (on the subject of young entrepreneurs in traditional businesses, and a second article about MBA entrepreneurs), as well as the London Free Press.
