About

Overview An exclusive, invite-only recovery experience for VCs, accelerator operators, and ecosystem connectors - hosted the Sunday before Toronto Tech Week. Relax and unwind in a premium performance wellness space designed to reset your body and mind. Hosted at RCVRI Toronto, in collaboration with Founder Athlete Inc., this immersive session combines recovery, and an intentional reset. The Experience You’ll move through a curated experience that includes: Hot & Cold Plunge Pools — reset your nervous system and boost clarity Red Light Therapy – support recovery, boost energy, and enhance focus PEMF Therapy – optimize circulation and cellular performance Compression Therapy – relieve tension and accelerate recovery Vitamin B12 shot - administered by an RPN RCVRI's team will guide you through each modality so you get the most out of the experience. Why This Matters Get your body and mind prepped for the marathon that is Tech Week. By Monday morning you'll be flooded with LinkedIn messages, cold emails, and a long-list of busy events. The Pre-Game helps you get set so you're locked in and ready to perform at your best. Come to reset. Stay to connect. About Founder Athlete Inc. Founder Athlete Inc. builds performance infrastructure for high-growth and scaling founders. Building a venture-backed company is a high-performance sport, but founders don't have the capacity for high execution output without burning out. At Founder Athlete, we engineer high-performing founders capable of enduring the demands of the founder journey over the long-run. Using the Foundlete Method™, we integrate three core pillars directly into a founder’s daily operating system: Physical State — optimizing the biological foundation that drives energy, focus, and recovery Mental Psychology — building resilience to execute under sustained pressure Execution Systems — installing structured frameworks for deep work, prioritization, and decision-making The result: founders who don’t just push harder, but are fit to build and built to win the founder journey. About the Venue RCVRI Toronto is the home of performance wellness, located at 8 Mercer Street. Built for high performers, it offers cutting-edge recovery modalities designed to optimize both physical and mental performance. Toronto Tech Week Toronto Tech Week is a citywide celebration of the people building what’s next. From May 25–29, 2026, founders, investors, and builders come together for hundreds of community-led events across Toronto, connecting tens of thousands of people around Canadian tech.
