Join us at the International Startup Festival, July 13-15!

Hi everyone,

Things are really heating up at the AlertPay.com office this summer. We're attending awesome conferences like the "Internet Retailer Conference and Exhibition" in San Diego and getting some recognition which makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It's nice to know that more and more of you get so much out of what we have to offer.

This year, CEO Firoz Patel will be speaking at Montreal's 2-day International Startup Festival on July 13-15, featuring some of the best and the brightest entrepreneurs from all over the world. Newbies will chat with veterans who have been around the block, new startups will be launched, keynote speeches will blow minds and inspire the masses, much networking and shmoozing will be done -- a fun time will be had by all. And AlertPay will be sponsoring the Startup Launch Party on July 13 to kick off the festivities, so all the more reason to come and check it out!

There will be a few different tracks at this conference which are organized according to the stage of any startup business, and they are as follows:

1. Stage 1: Lean, hungry and innovating (this is about the beginning stages of a startup company)
2. Stage 2: Fat, funded and growing (this is after a startup has become more established and is starting to grow)
3. Stage 3: Crushing it, sustainable and exiting (this is the point in which your startup falls apart, keep thriving or when you decide to bow out and move onto the next big thing)
4. Open mic lounge for startup pitches
5. Table top demo showcase for startups

Which stage is your business at? Figure that out and make sure to go to the talks associated with the stage you're in to get the most out of the experience. And that's not all. There will be an impressive list of keynote speakers, including:

- Andy Nulman, President, Just for Laughs Festival
- Dave McClure, investor, 500startups.com
- Chris Shipley, co-founder and CEO, GuideWire Group

This festival is happening in the best season in Montreal -- the summer! Not only can you attend this festival to listen to the CEO of AlertPay give a talk on his experiences with attracting and retaining talent when you run a startup company, but you can also take some time to enjoy the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival, the Fantasia Film Festival, the International Fireworks Festival and the Montreal Circus Festival for all of you whoever dreamed of running away with the circus.

The International Startup Festival will be a rewarding experience for those of you trying to launch, operate or expand your startup company. Attend talks, parties, "camp", and much more. Don't miss out!
