DDQIC Ignition Café: Ignite your Network!
About this Event
Connect with like-minded innovators, change-makers and experts from Queen's, Kingston and the surrounding region at the Ignition Café! Hosted by the Dunin-Deshpande Innovation Centre at Queen's (DDQIC), Ignition Café is Kingston’s go-to monthly meet-up for anyone looking to meet like-minded change-makers, share ideas, collaborate and foster meaningful connections.
Join us for DDQIC Ignition Café: Ignite Your Network, an evening dedicated to building meaningful connections across Kingston’s innovation and entrepreneurship community.
This month’s Ignition Café will focus on networking, conversation, and community-building. Rather than a speaker-focused session, Ignite Your Network is designed to help attendees meet new people, exchange ideas, and connect with others involved in entrepreneurship, research, innovation, and venture creation.
Whether you are a founder, student, researcher, entrepreneur, industry professional, ecosystem partner, or someone interested in getting more involved in Kingston’s innovation community, this event offers a welcoming space to expand your network and discover what others are building.
Strong networks can lead to new opportunities, partnerships, mentorship relationships, collaborations, and unexpected ideas. Through a mix of structured networking and informal conversations, attendees will have the chance to connect with innovators from Queen’s University, Kingston, and the surrounding region.
Make sure you arrive early, as we will also announce the launch of the 2026 DDQIC Regional Pitch Competition application, with over $50,000 in prizes to be won, and share some tips and tricks for selection.
Come out to meet like-minded change-makers, share your experiences, and build connections across the local innovation ecosystem.
All are welcome! Appetizers will be heartily served!
