Four Saskatoon tech companies are in San Francisco this week to meet with investors, mentors and technology experts.

Better Cart, Embrace Technologies, Hugr (Hugger) and Sezzwho are the four companies taking part in SREDA’s second annual tech trip.

The four local companies entered a contest by SREDA earlier this year to earn a spot on the trip which will allow the entrepreneurs to grow the business and make more connections.

Alex Fallon, President and CEO of SREDA says the trip will help the Saskatoon-based entrepreneurs take their companies to the next level and in turn strengthen and grow the local economy here at home.

Better Cart is a smart shopping app that enables people to search, list and save their grocery items and compare grocery prices in real time based on their geographical location.

Embrace Technologies is an app that makes the home buying process simpler, more concise and cost-effective.

Hugr, a business to consumer app that aims to fill a gap in the digital mental health market by integrating mental health education, real life social support and mental health tracking.

Sezzwho is a software designed to anonymously capture the overall emotion, sentiment, engagement and satisfaction of teams by analyzing daily messages through company emial and chat.
