About this Event
Going global sounds exciting, until you are faced with choosing the right markets, managing risk, and getting it right the first time.
Toronto Takes on the World brings together founders who have done exactly that. In this candid, in-person session, you will hear how Toronto-based ventures approached international expansion, what worked, what did not, and what they would do differently.
From leveraging the city’s diverse talent and globally connected ecosystem to identifying the right first markets, this conversation focuses on the real decisions behind scaling beyond Canada. You will also gain perspective on today’s shifting economic and political landscape, and learn how Export Development Canada and the Trade Commissioner Service can support your growth.
Join us after the discussion to connect with founders, experts, and peers building globally from Toronto.
This is a hybrid event, and there will be a livestream available.
Who should attend?
Canadian startup founders, CEOs and senior leaders, investors, ecosystem partners and commercialization advisors.
