StartupCampWaterloo10: Chris Theissen ticket

The founder of Zoomii.com, Chris Theissen, was only recently diagnosed with a particularly nasty form of brain cancer. He has already had surgery that has removed his right frontal lobe but sadly the tumor is growing back which leaves him with very few conventional options. Experimental treatments cost money that goes beyond what OHIP or insurance will cover.

If that wasn’t enough, Chris has two little ones. One is just two years old and another arrived the beginning of October. His wife is currently on maternity leave and he can’t work due to his illness.

Chris has been such a great guy in the local startup community I think it is pretty easy to ask the local startup community buy Chris a ticket for $10 for StartupCampWaterloo. The ticket proceeds will go to Chris and his young family.

If you decide to buy one of those tickets please register for one of the free tickets as we have already had close to 5o people register on those and I am guessing a few will buy one of the other tickets as well.
