LiON’S LAIR returns in 2012

Last year Innovation Factory (@itbeginswithIF) and the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce (@hamiltonchamber) put on a contest called LiON’S LAIR that pitted ten startup finalists against one another to win $100,000 worth of cash and in-kind services in a competition reminiscent of CBC’s Dragon’s Den. The top winner of last year’s competition was Weever Apps (@WeeverApps), you can check out video coverage of the event below:
