#StartupChats | Do You Really Know Your Competition?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]All businesses have competition, and it’s a good thing. Competition is the invisible hand that guides your market providing the benchmarks for you to track growths and progresses. If you can monitor what your competitors are doing, and devise what your business can offer something novel that others aren’t, you can make sure you become the invisible hand driving the market, rather than the ones driven by it.
Join Startup Canada (@Startup_Canada) and Scotiabank (@Scotiabank) for a live #StartupChats on Twitter from 12pm – 1pm ET. Hosted by Kylie Woods, the Founder & CEO of Calgary-based Chic Geek (@kywoods_), we’ll be learning about Do You Really Know Your Competition?
