SproutUpTO

Sprout Up is a free monthly event for forward-thinking Toronto area entrepreneurs to gather and mind-meld. A great chance for startups around the city to get friendly, discuss current trends, and network in a casual, open, and focused setting. Attendees will walk away with new insights, new friends and actionable ideas for their businesses.

Sprout Up is made up of three main components:

Innovation Demo – Pre-selected entrepreneurs share their innovative business ideas to the audience
Guest Speaker - Fabulous new speakers will be brought in each month to spur new discussions on relevant trends and ideas
Networking – Network with peers: share knowledge, experiences and drinks
Each month will have a different theme. For more information or to RSVP, contact Erin at erin@sprouter.com.
