LocAlley

LocAlley is partnering with small business owners to support resilience and growth in Toronto’s communities. We understand first-hand that the entrepreneurial journey is not for the faint of heart. The challenges feel endless and it seems like you always need to outwork your competition. And because of that, success feels so much more rewarding. We provide small business owners a common platform to share, ask, and give to their communities, as well as a financial support system for those that don’t qualify for funding. We are super excited to announce that LocAlley has been recruited as a Clearco Venture Scout! Clearco is the world’s largest ecommerce investor and has invested $2+ billion into 4,500+ companies to date! All by using data science to identify high-growth funding opportunities in less than 24 hours... YES in JUST 24 hours! LocAlley was founded in September 2020, currently housed in the Zone Learning entrepreneurship network at Ryerson University. Our business development is grounded by the online entrepreneurship program 100 Steps to Startup, and strengthened by partnerships with the University of Toronto, and the Ted Rogers School of Management. LocAlley will be hunting for the next hot startup and propelling Clearco’s deployment of their $1B fund to invest into early-stage companies that we know have SO MUCH potential for growth! We are thrilled to be able to extend financial support of Clearco to our fellow founders and business owners. Let’s get started and grow your business! Need funding? Or know someone who does?
