MaRS on TO’s number one social networking site
Being a leading technology and innovation centre, and having such a tech-savvy group working here in the MaRS Centre, it comes as no surprise that the MaRS community is connecting on one of the largest social networking communities, Facebook.
The Toronto Star recently ran a great story on how and why Toronto has become the capital of Facebook. We can claim more members of the site than any other city in the world. Developing these networks is a great way to meet and connect with people in your community that you might not have otherwise.
If you’re reading this blog, you’re a member of the MaRS community. And if you’ve been looking for a way to connect, Facebook is just one more option.
When you join the MaRS Facebook group, you can share what you’re working on, ask questions about others’ experiences, find people in your discipline, or even those interested in the same sport or music. Find out what events everyone is attending, post a job or share a photo. And don’t worry: you can be as public or as private as you want to be.
Kevin currently manages initial client engagements with the MaRS Venture Group. He also administers a federal fund that provides mentorship to start-up companies across Ontario.
