Thoughts on the 2015 BiG DiFIZEN of the Year Award!

Perhaps few of us really know what it’s like to be recognized by your community – in this case the #HamOnt Startup community for your contributions to the whole ecosystem!

But again last night, our Innovation Factory presented the 2015 Mark Chamberlain BigDifIZEN of the Year award to Jay Rosenblatt! Kudos Jay….an honor well worth acknowledging!

As you can see the pix below, it was again a big nite for the whole Startup community and the cities “movers & shakers” were mostly all there…and it was a great evening gala!

While the speeches were short and oh-so-to-the-point, I’d like to congratulate Dave Carter – CEO of the Innovation Factory for his strong support of the #HamOnt Starup community – and Mark Chamberlain who was truly one of the first citizens to get our community started and up and running! Kudos to you both!

So…as I’ve said before…it was a great night for #HamOnt…a great gala and yes, truly a great winner….hat’s off to Mark Chamberlain himself for his leadership in getting the city moving towards it’s renewal and to our Innovation Factory for their sheparding of same….we truly do live in a great community…and judging by our latest DiFIZEN of the Year, it’s only going to be that much better, eh!
