Venn Innovation

☕ Thank you to everyone who joined us for tonight's Founders Café!

This month's event was a special one as we turned the spotlight around and welcomed our very own host, Alicia Roisman Ismach, into the guest seat. It was a wonderful evening of conversation, insights, and stories from Alicia's journey through fintech, startups, and building founder communities around the world.

A special thank you to Alicia for sharing her experience and perspective with us, and for helping make Founders Café the welcoming and engaging space it has become.

We're also grateful to Izouran Sweets for the delicious Moroccan tea and treats, and Brix Experience for keeping everyone caffeinated throughout the evening ☕✨

And as always, thank you to everyone who came out. These events wouldn't be possible without this incredible community of founders, builders, and innovators.

The 2026 MedTech Summit brought together healthcare leaders, researchers, innovators, and industry partners to explore how collaboration can accelerate innovation in New Brunswick's healthcare system.

The event also provided an opportunity to showcase the incredible innovation emerging from our Venn Garage startup community:

🔹 NordLot and TensorVault Inc demonstrated how AI can help decision-makers navigate complex healthcare challenges through an interactive Sandbox experience.

🔹 Urai AI Corp. AI, alongside Dr. Sarah Pakzad, showcased the potential of AI-powered tools to support dementia detection.

🔹 EasyVolunteer helped power the event behind the scenes by providing the platform used to coordinate and engage volunteers throughout the Summit.

We're proud to see these startups applying innovative technologies to real-world challenges and contributing to the future of healthcare in Atlantic Canada.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's Summit a success. The conversations, partnerships, and ideas shared over these two days will continue to drive meaningful innovation forward. 🚀
