Toronto Tech Week reminded us why Canada’s innovation ecosystem is so special.

Over the past week, our NEXT Canada founders had the opportunity to learn from incredible leaders, and reconnect with alumni.

On Thursday, Reza Satchu led an exclusive Founder Mindset class with guest speaker and NEXT alum/founder of Ada Mike Murchison , giving attendees a behind-the-scenes look at one of NEXT Canada’s core experiences. Through candid discussions on leadership, company building, and founder judgment, founders gained valuable insights into what it takes to create lasting impact.

Thank you to everyone who, attended, spoke, and contributed to making the week such a success.

We are so happy that we were able to be partners with Toronto Tech Week for another year.
