Being in Canada also means flying under the radar, which can be a good thing for long term viability of your product.
My company does 100x the traffic of our nearest competitor but you'll never see a TechCrunch article about us, since we're in Toronto. So there's no pressure for overnight success and you can work diligently towards making a better product instead of meeting unreasonable expectations.
- wmoxam 14y agoBeing in Toronto has nothing to do with seeing (or not seeing) a TC article about your company. TC covers plenty of Toronto based startups, including the last two that I've worked for. Also, seeing your company on TC isn't all that useful anyways...
