Accelerator Centre Client Intellijoint (formerly Avenir Medical) Groundbreaking Medical Device Company Featured in Toronto Star

I have the wonderful opportunity to advise and work with 50+ tech start ups through my gig as the in-house communications advisor at the Accelerator Centre. Intellijoint (formerly Avenir Medical) is one of these interesting companies.  The team has achieved a number of significant milestones over the last few months, closing $3.3 million in financing, receiving their Class One Medical Device certification, and now, as this article in the Toronto Star details, witnessing their device (which provides for a more accurate alignment of a replacement joint in hip surgery) used for the first time in an actual patient surgery.


Ignition tech start-up client cream.hr featured in Mashable

I have great fun working with cream.hr, one of my tech start-up clients. The team is highly dedicated, the technology is very interesting, and the founders understand and appreciate the value of good PR. And now, they have customers singing their praises (which is always the very best PR of all). Congrats on their recent coverage in Mashablewww.cream.hr
