Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #647
Hey there, so hope you’re having a great day. I have an interesting bit of news to share with you. And that is about Canada’s first Amazon Alexa Voice Technology Accelerator Program.
I was just reading an article about this, and basically, it says that beginning December 2nd of this year, the accelerator centers, Alexa Voice Tech Accelerator Program… that’s quite a mouthful.
It runs for 6 to 12 months and it’s built around a world renowned curriculum based on programming.
And, here’s a quote from the director of Client Programs and Initiatives at the accelerator center and he says, “The Alexa Voice Tech Accelerator Program builds on our proven program model, and is specialized for software, hardware and service companies that have the potential to integrate with Alexa, or directly incorporate Alexa already.”
It’s built around a world renowned curriculum based on programming.

This is really exciting because this is the first time that there is this type of program available in Canada, of course in partnership with Amazon.
So this is something that you are interested in, or you know somebody that might be interested in this.
Please look up the Accelerator Center, it’s based out of Waterloo and it’s a great opportunity to get involved.
And also, you can just simply say to Alexa, “Alexa, apply to the accelerator center.”
Alright. Have a great day. Talk to you tomorrow.
