Welcome to the "Be Bold, Be Real" Young Professionals Speed Networking Event! Get ready to meet new people, make connections, and have a great time.

Join us on Fri. Nov. 29, 2024, at 6:30 PM at MORI (Midtown - Yonge & Eglinton) for an evening of speed networking, activities, and fun! Whether you're a seasoned networker or just starting out, this event is perfect for anyone looking to expand their circle and build new relationships. DON'T MISS OUT on this amazing opportunity to be bold, be real and make meaningful connections.

Who is BTheBoldest? After the pandemic, it has been tough for many to find a community; a place to belong. People have adapted to this new norm of being separated, and sometimes feeling lonely, impacting everyone's well-being which most can agree is at its all-time low. For BTheBoldest, we hope to be a positive change, and help people's well-being by organizing quality events to bring people together to find a sense of belonging, meet new people, make new friends, and become part of an inclusive and welcoming community.

• BTheBoldest is a local startup event business founded by Brian To in Sept. 2024. Event planning has always been his passion since high school, with over 10+ years of experience in event planning.
• Everyone always has a great time at our events - all our attendees say that as Brian puts 110% time and effort into all the little details, organizing quality events where everyone belongs, feels valued, and improves the well-being of all - that’s our mission.
• After being let down and disappointed by attending many poorly organized events in Toronto and Ottawa, this gave him another reason to start this event business. He and his friends attended events that put in little to no effort in organizing events - running out of name tags (how is that even possible?), having no agenda, no host introduction… the list goes on. What is worse is when they do not live up to what they advertise like “meet job recruiters / CEOs from this and that industry”, or claim themselves as “the hottest networking event in the city”. We can guarantee you we never mislead our attendees as that is unacceptable. If we advertise it, it will happen at our events.
• Brian has hosted networking events for up to 500 attendees (Wine & Cheese, Speed Networking, etc.), festive/holiday events for non-profits/charities of up to 300 attendees (Lunar New Year, Christmas, Anniversary, Hong Kong Food Festival, Korean Night & Karaoke, etc.), and annual Christmas dinners since 2015 (excluding pandemic times) for groups up to 40 attendees, and many more!
