Turnkey events platform Entr seeded in $1.13 mln financing

Montréal-based turnkey events platform Entr has raised $1.13 million in a seed-stage financing. The round was led by U.S. venture capital firm Telegraph Hill Capital with participation from iNovia Capital, Peter Kern, Interaction Ventures and Guillaume Jacquet. Founded last year by Marc-Antoine Bonin, Emeric Noël and Alexandre Vanier, Entr helps enterprises plan and book events. Platform users can select from a curated portfolio of 1,000 Canadian venues and vendors. Entr, which is debuting in Toronto next month, will use the funds raised to expand across Canada, improve its product, and bring on additional talent.
