Demo Day

Demo Day is back! Our new grads are about to start their careers as professional web developers; but first they want to show you what they've learned to build in just 8 weeks with Lighthouse Labs (https://lighthouselabs.ca/).

You can expect pizza, beer, a chance to rub shoulders with an incredible network of developers and entrepreneurs, and an inside look at the skill set of our new graduates!

Schedule:

6:00 - 6:30pm
Doors open, networking, food, beer!

6:30 - 7:30pm
Introductions from our General Manager, followed by project presentation from each group.

7:30 - 8:00pm
Your chance to talk with each group of students individually! They will set up booths in our space where you can interact with their project directly and ask them whatever questions you may have! This is also your chance to vote for your favourite project - and we take the People's Choice verrrrrry seriously.

8:00 pm
Based on the voting, the winner of the People's Choice Award is announced! The night is wrapped up.... unless you want to join in on our unofficial after party.

Plotline- Sam, Munene

A blogging platform, but instead of using text to convey a message, we're using maps. Similar to how Instagram or twitter works, there will be accounts where users can log in and post their own content (so in our case, maps with points, each of which have information attached), while also being able to follow other users and like/comment on their maps.

Maple Road - Natasha, Fiorella, Alexandra

An online eligibility calculator for the Express Entry immigration program to Canada. The user inputs their personal information such as education, work experience, and level of English or French and the app provides feedback regarding their eligibility.

Ping - Thomas, Martin, Jeff

Ping connects you with colleges and makes networking a breeze. Using bluetooth, Ping is able to monitor users relative proximity at conferences and networking events. Users are presented with a list of colleges who they were near at different times throughout the event. Making it easy to see who they met. Taking it a step further Ping interfaces with linkedIn’s api to provide users with a summary of their college’s profile information, and a link to their linkedIn account.
