WHAT TO EXPECT

Up to eight entrepreneurs from across Canada will take the virtual 'stage' to present their 3-minute startup pitch and receive strategic feedback from leaders in the Canadian startup ecosystem.

Attendees! You will have the opportunity to vote on a 'top pitch', as well as engage with pitchers and panel via polls, Q&A and Live Chat. If you can support a pitcher or want to connect, we'll provide space for that as well.

For our part, we commit to creating a comfortable and engaging space for the startup community to gather.
