“I got the idea for this event driving back to Calgary from Ontario. When my kids started university last fall my daughter headed west to BC and my son went east to Ontario. My son and I drove out together and that was lots of fun, and his excitement was contagious. During the long hours behind the wheel over three days on my way home, the ideas for this event started to come together in my head. Could I ride my bike from Calgary to Richmond Hill, Ontario? Well, thanks to Compugen’s support and sponsorship, we are going to find out. My vision is that this event brings our customers, business partners, colleagues, family, and friends together in an event that showcases how Compugen approaches the transformational cloud journey with our customers and raises funds for a cause that has taken many of our loved ones on a different kind of journey.”
