Founders usually run low on something: funding, growth support, or product direction. On August 13, Futurpreneur, Startup Grind Toronto, and YSpace are opening one room for one night to fix that, with mentors from all three organizations in the same space.
Fuel the Founders is built for founders somewhere between idea and $1M in revenue: past the early spark, not yet at the exit. It's not an open mixer. Every RSVP gets reviewed, and the room stays small on purpose, so the people you meet are worth the two hours.
The evening:
6:00 – 6:20 PM — Arrival, check-in, and a drink at the Refuel Bar
6:20 – 6:30 PM — A quick welcome from all three orgs
6:30 – 7:20 PM — Fuel Stops: mentor stations on fundraising, growth & marketing, ops & talent, legal, and more
7:20 – 8:10 PM — Open networking, mentors included
8:10 – 8:30 PM — Close out
It's a free event, so the spots are limited and reviewed for fit.
August 13 – 14, 2026
10:00 PM – 12:30 AM (UTC)
