Featured Founder Story

Vitaly: StackAdapt

Ten years ago, StackAdapt was flying below the radar. Usage-based revenue, an unproven team, no long-term contracts. Today, those same characteristics are exactly what make the company one of Canada’s most durable and globally competitive tech businesses — and proof that you don’t have to leave Canada to win.
