1:30-1:45 Jody Schnarr, CEO of Fongo (www.fongo.com)
Imagine not having to pay another cell phone bill again. A local start-up called Fongo is helping Canadians to do just that. With the Fongo app, users can take advantage of a number of popular phone features on their smartphones, tablets and computers.
1:45-2:00 Julie Dopko, Director, HR and Talent Programs at Communitech (www.communitech.ca) and Jason Field, founder of BrainStation (www.brainstation.io).
BrainStation is partnering with Communitech to launch its digital education courses in Waterloo this June. Out of the Commuitech Hub, part-time courses will be offered in user experience design, web development and mobile development. These courses will create an opportunity for Communitech’s members and the broader Waterloo Region to learn in a practical, hands-on environment, and leave the program having created a website, built an app, or designed a new product. Additional courses, such as digital marketing and product management, will roll out by the Fall 2015.
