Alberta ecosystem context

Alberta tech is Calgary and Edmonton: energy-tech, logistics, agtech, industrial software, and B2B SaaS, with a strong research bench in Edmonton and a fast-growing founder community in Calgary. The buyers are what make this market different. Selling into energy, logistics, and industrial enterprises means real vendor security reviews, and those reviews arrive far earlier in the life of the company than a consumer play would ever see.

Alberta founders tend to get the security ask in the same order: a long questionnaire, then a request for a recent penetration test, then a SOC 2 report before procurement will move at all. We deliver all three on Mountain hours with no travel markup. The testing runs with our offensive-security partner; we scope it, and we write up what the findings mean for the deal that is waiting on them.
