About

We now have a regular in person home at StartWell (https://startwell.co), Toronto's premier coworking, meeting space and media production campus.

Our monthly fireside chats, keynotes and panel discussions will be produced in hybrid format – combining a limited in-person audience with live broadcasts and on-demand films uploaded to StartWell’s Youtube channel regularly.

Events will typically hosted on the 3rd Thursday of each month with a limited in person audience and free virtual livestreams.

For all the news, livestreams and post-show content we recommend bookmarking a new page we’ve setup at startwell.co/startupgrind-toronto
