OOHLALA wins the Queen's Entrepreneur Competition

We had a great time these past few months taking part in business competitions and getting great feedback from judges and industry experts. While competitions can never take the place of the real startup world (and all its craziness), it does help validate many assumptions about a business model. It's also a great opportunity to network and gain valuable feedback from individuals who have built successful companies or are in the Venture capital industry. Oh, yeah the friends you make and the prize money helps too!

Lessons we learnt:

• A strong team is very important.


• Listen to your users, and then listen some more :)


• Heed their advice!


• Find a niche


• be nimble


• Look for a great market or a problem to solve


• Be passionate and love what you do (we love helping students and young people)

Be my Valentine!

It's that day of the year where we can all shake away our shyness and come out to celebrate Love!

So if you had an eye on that special someone, today is a great time to let them know. As always OOHLALA is here to help with guestlists to some of the hottest Valentine's parties in Toronto and Montreal, and great deals to your favourite restaurants and stores.

P.S. to spread the Love we also added a private social feature.  You can now message and chat with other OOHLALA members nearby ;)

OOHLALA Nightlife arrives in Toronto!

A big thanks to all our Toronto members for their patience! We are happy to announce that guestlists to the hottest Nightclubs in the city are finally here!

Working with our friends at Lyme and Ink-00, we are now offering guestlists at This is London, Tryst, and The Guvernment (among the top 5 nightclubs in the world). More venues coming soon.

Party hard Toronto and Montreal!
