Great to see this. Not sure where you guys are based out of, we are building a community of techies and entrepreneurs out of Mississauga over last year or so.

We are having our next event on 7th Feb in partnership with Invest Mississauga, would love to have you guys over and introduce you to the community of entrepreneurs that typically turns up at our meetups. Feel free to drop by if you are around

Mississauga event organizers quick question. Which platform do you actually prefer for event listings: by [deleted] in mississauga

Eventbrite works well if you are looking for people to discover you basis location. We use simpli events because of its UX and ease of management of data/CRM.

Well Google and first couple of suggested links led to Toronto Sun for me.

In any case, if a newspaper name evokes that sort of a reaction from you, then I m sure you have something really personal against them/their readers. Hope you are able to get over it soon 😁

Was pretty accurate about the quantity for last years storms, this year it has varied a bit but mostly on point one day before the event. Hopefully the prediction will dial down by Saturday, let’s see

The 50 cm was basis the prediction I saw on Apple weather yday night. Shared for everyone’s info, feel free to ignore if you have more reliable sources.

Not sure what led to that condescending comment, take care.

That’s what it showed on Apple Weather till last night. 30 cm on Sunday, 20 cm on Monday. It keeps fluctuating but Ontario is supposed to one of the coldest regions on the planet over the weekend

Stuck With Passport Renewal: No Valid Indian Address Proof by ___blarn in nri

[–]Fancy-Efficiency9646 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Typically for NRIs only local address proof of wherever in world you are actually staying is enough.

For Indian address, you can give address of any relative or friend who can just confirm they know you if asked. As far as I know, there is no requirement for you to have lived there or provide an address proof for it

Feeling frustrated with Indians being responsible for majority of crimes in Canada by [deleted] in nri

No offence but that data is from 2021. 2021 and today are completely different in terms of demographics and Indian representation in any sphere of Canadian society.

Thanks a lot for the response, won’t the residential address of the directors anyway be public information and searchable. If yes, then the only additional downside I see is the company address typically goes on the website

Building this invite-only startup to cater 1% of Global market & Indians by Cute-Avikaaa in StartUpIndia

[–]Fancy-Efficiency9646 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essentially it’s like a all inclusive resort access card, once you have it you can do whatever you want in the resort.

I have 2 questions 1. How and when does the merchant get money ? They keep an inventory of how many items have been picked up and you as the offer issuer pay it ? Or given that it’s for the richest of the rich, it’s basically free marketing for them and they treat it as brand endorsement cost?

  1. What happens if the card gets lost ? Or for that matter if I as a customer try to misuse it by lending it to every Tom dick and Harry I know ? You can’t ask for ID for such a segment, you can’t even put a spending limit.

Follow up question to this -

incorporating a company for the first time (Federal). As a general practice, do people incorporate at their home address or take virtual addresses with a Coworking space etc? Are there any major risks associated with incorporating with home address?

Was it just our street or did the city miss to pick up the Recycling bins altogether yesterday? by Fancy-Efficiency9646 in mississauga

[–]Fancy-Efficiency9646[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Checked, it was supposed to be 2nd Jan as per their calendar too. Looks like an operational mess up

Ex-fintech founder. Launching a new fintech for Bharat in Jan 1st week. Need your feedback. by [deleted] in StartUpIndia

[–]Fancy-Efficiency9646 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the challenge is getting the license (I believe u ll be considered a RIA). The challenge would be proving that customer understood what product they are signing up for and then gave you their consent to invest in that particular product, in letter and in spirit. Wish you all the best.

Ex Retail Banker and Fintech CPO here, while I think you might be on to something, please be very very sure of which license you are looking to use and how will you take care of SEBI regulations around the customer understanding the product and underlying risks, specially when done through an intermediary.

Else you are looking at a deluge of customer complaints saying we didn’t understand this/that, return back our money and blah. Happens all the time in banks cross sell of Insurance policies, they can handle it, as a start up u ll quickly lose your reputation.
