Learn, Network, and Engage with entrepreneurs from Toronto

The startup scene in Toronto is just apart of the overall tech corridor that extends from the city to Waterloo. Known for being the most immigrant-friendly city in the world, Toronto’s startup scene is bold in its ability to go international for resources and has no worries about attracting world-class talent. Ranked by the Startup Genome Project (2017), as one of the top 20 strongest ecosystems in the world, Toronto is an excellent place to launch your startup.
