TechPlace welcomes two new LaunchPad Companies, Kinjunxion and Unifai Solutions
Burlington, ON, January 17, 2018 – In late 2017, TechPlace accepted two new companies, Kinjunxion and Unifai Solutions, into their LaunchPad program. Kinjunxion and Unifai Solutions add to the thriving environment of diverse technology companies residing at TechPlace and their addition leaves only one LaunchPad office still available to a scalable, growth-oriented tech company.
Founded in Burlington, Kinjunxion is a Social Enterprise built by a community of people dedicated to helping individuals and families find local solutions to everyday challenges. Founder Alejandro Cuellar created Kinjunxion because he saw a gap in the availability, accuracy and clarity online to finding answers to common questions relating to the challenges of family life. Kinjunxion is gearing for growth having recently launched their platform and will be utilizing the resources of TechPlace to grow as a company. “We are really excited about the opportunity a TechPlace LaunchPad offers”, Founder and CEO Alejandro Cuellar said, “being located amongst entrepreneurial organizations like Haltech and Angel One give Kinjunxion tremendous opportunities to fulfill our objectives through leveraging their mentors, programming and organic collaboration”.
Hailing from Waterloo, Unifai Solutions is a spin-off of Able-One Systems Inc. an established full-service IT solutions provider and systems integrator. Unifai Solutions is an Advanced Technology Solutions Integrator that assists the adoption process of advanced technology solutions (Artificial Intelligence, Big Data/Cognitive Analytics, Advanced Systems Integration) to businesses that are challenged with disruption. CEO and established entrepreneur Grant Sojnocki is very excited about the opportunities for growth that TechPlace offers, “Unifai Solutions is thrilled to be accepted as the newest resident in the LaunchPad program at TechPlace”, said Sojnocki, “we will benefit greatly from the environment established by other LaunchPad companies and start-up resources”. Unifai will continue their path of growth in anticipation of increasing sales and will continue to develop a strong team in 2018 with TechPlace being their first step.
Claire Green, Manager of TechPlace, is thrilled to have both companies residing at TechPlace stating “since opening in June we have seen over 2,000 visitors in the space with over a quarter of them identifying as entrepreneurs”.
