Current & Critical - Andrew Browne, Thin Air Labs - Supporting the Innovation Ecosystem

In this episode, dive into the cutting-edge ways that Thin Air Labs supports Alberta’s thriving innovation ecosystem. It’s no secret that our province needs a tailored approach that isn’t simply a replica of the Bay Area or Toronto. We’re joined by Andrew Browne, Partner and Funding Catalyst Lead at Thin Air Labs, to shed some light on this topic.

Andrew’s background as an entrepreneur and funding expert gives him a unique perspective, and he explains how Thin Air Labs is shaking up the traditional fund development roadmap. Rather than following the status quo, they’ve built their own parameters to identify the most promising founders, companies, and big ideas worth investing in. And once they’ve found them, Thin Air Labs provides a complete 360 package to help these businesses scale significantly.

Discover Thin Air Labs’ innovative approach, the challenges of fostering a thriving innovation ecosystem in Alberta, and how we can continue to support and uplift our local entrepreneurs.

Canadian-built companies have an arsenal of tools at their disposal to help them scale and grow, but many founders aren’t aware of them. Andrew and the Thin Air Labs team help them identify and apply for federal, provincial and municipal grants, as well as a suite of additional services that will help them do everything from de-risking ideas and productization to accelerating growth and scale. Tune in for a master class on scaling your ideas from someone who has been on both sides of the trenches. Andrew also shares his thoughts on why Alberta is uniquely positioned to solve hard problems, learn fast and grow our ecosystem to compete globally.
