I’m speaking at 3pm on financing and starting your company. I’ll be be doing a series of case studies of my various startups throughout my career and how I financed them. I’ll be reviewing the different approaches to financing and bootstrapping a company.
The program for the conference is here. Come out if you are an aspiring entrepreneur with questions, or looking to network with other entrepreneurs.
Small correction in the program, I have been mistakenly listed as the head of strategy for Zero-Knowledge Systems :(
Since the Gazette article where I was mentioned earlier this week, I noticed a lot of search engine traffic in my logs for “austin hill zero knowledge what happened” and similar questions.
For those interested in an update, Zero-Knowledge succesfully survived the technology melt down, flourished and became the world leader in providing managed broadband services for ISPs and changed its name to Radialpoint.
They are doing phenomonal and are one of Canada’s fastest growing software companies. (Radialpoint is also hiring and they are growing so quick there are great entrepreneurial opportunities within the company for any really bright and ambitious people.)
I left Radialpoint in June to work on a new venture called Project Ojibwe with my old friend Alex Eberts (also a Zero-Knowledge co-founder).

The workshops seem interesting. Hopefully this snow won’t slow down attendance.

YES is definitely at the top of its game right now and I commend them for a great annual conference.
My start-up had a booth at there, but since I was participating at the Queen’s Entrepreneurship Competition in Kingston, Ontario on that day, I had to cancel my attendance by a proxy (my father) was there instead.
