What awesome people are presenting this event, and why?
The Digital Moose Lounge is a non-profit, longstanding community of Canadians in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our mission is to be the first point of contact for Canadian culture in this area, and we host a number of social and informational events throughout the year for the benefit of the Canadian population locally.

We are partnering closely with Trade & Invest BC, Community Foundations of Canada, the Canadian Consulate in San Francisco, and universities and organizations from across the country -- and couldn't put on such a huge and fantastic event without their support.
