SeatGeek is a New York-based ticketing company that runs a mobile-first marketplace for live sports, concerts and theater alongside an enterprise platform that powers primary ticketing for teams, leagues and venues.

Transit is a Montreal-based mobile app that turns the chaos of public transportation into a single, legible screen. It aggregates real-time schedules, GPS vehicle locations, and crowdsourced rider data across more than 1,100 cities in dozens of countries, layering in bikeshare, carshare, ridehail, microtransit, and mobile ticketing so people can navigate a city without owning a car. Founded by Sam Vermette and Guillaume Campagna, Transit partners directly with transit agencies who endorse and increasingly sponsor the app for their riders.
