"Democratizing Startup Funding" with Peter-Paul Van Hoeken

On this episode of What The Tech we welcome FrontFundr Founder & CEO Peter-Paul Van Hoeken! 

At FrontFundr, Peter-Paul and his team have built the leading equity crowdfunding platform in Canada, empowering everyday Canadians to invest in companies they believe in, providing entrepreneurs with the essential funding to drive growth. To date, more than 40,000 users have joined the FrontFundr community to help businesses raise more than $200 million.

But FrontFundr is just one of the many organizations that Peter-Paul has been a part of that are helping drive innovation across the Canadian and global tech landscape. I’m excited to pick his brain on the state of funding, building a business in Canada, and the nuances of crowdfunding versus other financing channels in our chat.
