Congrats to the winners of the VeloCity Venture Fund!

Yesterday we told you about the VeloCity Venture Fund (VVF) competition at the University of Waterloo.

Ten student startups, members of the on-campus incubator VeloCity, were vying for one of four $25,000 cheques.

The VVF winners were:

• Kira Talent, founded by Konrad Listwan-Ciesielski and Emilie Cushman, an online video platform that allows employers to interview hundreds of job candidates in minutes.
• Oikoi, founded by Logan Fuller and Oliver Cardoza, an online rental search and management platform making it easy to find apartments and roommates, and simplifying the property management process for landlords.
• PumpUp, founded by Phil Jacobson and Garrett Gottlieb, the first fitness app that provides personalized workouts that learn as you use the app and adapt your workout to help you reach your fitness goals
• Thalmic Labs, founded by Stephen Lake, Aaron Grant and Matt Bailey, creating natural, wearable 3D control.

Beside the $25,000 prize, VVF winners also get mentorship and space at the VeloCity Garage, VeloCity's off-campus workspace inside the Communitech Hub.
