Snug Vest (Wearable Therapeutics) list of successes continues to grow

Dragons' Den Success: Lisa Slays the DragonsSnug Vest was aired on CBC's Dragon's Den on April 1st, Canada's Shark Tank equivalent. We threw a big party to celebrate and watch the show on national television. The party was also a celebration of the investment round as well as a fundraiser for "World Autism Awareness Day". We raised $1,170.00, and proceeds were donated to two autism organizations: Autism Speaks Canada and the Pacific Autism Family Center (PAFC), which resulted in a positive meeting with the CEO of the PAFC. Check out the party pics here. For those that didn't get a chance to watch the episode yet, you can check it out here.
