About

Looking to connect with Toronto’s startup ecosystem in a real, meaningful way? Founder Showcase — Demo & Connect is a community night where founders, builders, investors, and operators come together to share what they’re building, exchange ideas, and build relationships. This isn’t a formal conference — it’s a high-signal space for founder showcases and genuine connections. 🎤 Building something interesting? We offer 5-minute demo / showcase slots for tech founders and startup builders in the community. Send your pitch blurb or deck to: mapleleafventureclub@gmail.com Spots are selected on a rolling basis and aim to have a diversified representation from the applications for this event. If you'd rather attend, listen, and meet people in the ecosystem, you're absolutely welcome too — presenting is completely optional. 🤝 What to Expect • Live demos and short showcases from Toronto founders • A relaxed environment to share early startups or product • High-quality networking with founders, operators, and investors • Opportunities to meet future collaborators, co-founders, or supporters Whether you're building something exciting or simply want to meet others in the ecosystem, come hang out. This is where ideas turn into relationships — and conversations turn into opportunities. Let’s grow the Toronto founder community together. 🚀 Maple Leaf Venture Club (MLVC) A community hub for VC, tech founders, innovators, and entrepreneurs.
