🚩Important: Meetup RSVP ≠ confirmed spot
Keep your Meetup RSVP as Going so the event stays visible here. You will get link to a short application after you RSVP.

A lot of people in this group work with entrepreneurs every day — or are entrepreneurs themselves.
Agency owners, marketers, consultants, freelancers, creators, startup founders and business owners often end up at the same conferences and seminars...
…but don't necessarily get much time to actually know one another.
So instead of another marketing presentation, we're trying something simpler:
# 🚶 Toronto Founder Walk
A casual Sunday walk along Toronto's Harbourfront where entrepreneurs, marketers and business owners can meet through natural conversation.
No slides.
No speakers.
No sales presentation.
No forced networking exercises.
Just:
Walk. Talk. Meet someone interesting.
### The idea
I've been involved with entrepreneur and community events in Toronto since 2016, and this new series grew out of the 18,000-member Toronto Entrepreneurs & Start-ups Facebook community.
One thing I've noticed over the years is that the best connections rarely come from exchanging as many business cards as possible.
They usually happen when you spend enough time talking to someone to discover:
> “Oh, this person actually thinks about things in an interesting way.”
That's what we're trying to create.

📍Meetup Location: Simcoe Wavedeck sign
📅Sunday schedule
🕛4:45 PM — Arrive / check in
🕛5:00 PM — Introductions
Tell us who you are, what you're working on and one interesting way you're using—or want to use—AI.
🕛5:15 PM — Walk begins
We'll rotate conversations and introduce a few AI discussion prompts along the route.
🕛Around 6:15 PM — Official finish
Many stay afterwards to network. Some people may grab food or a drink afterward.

🏃Running late?
Don't give up on coming.
Approved guests can join our Sunday Walk WhatsApp group. Once we're moving, we'll share our live location so late arrivals can catch up.

We'll help make introductions at the start, but this is intentionally informal.
Possible conversations might include:

  • What's actually working in marketing right now?
  • Growing an agency or service business
  • AI and automation
  • Customer acquisition
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Building a personal brand
  • Sales
  • Hiring
  • What you're currently working on
  • Or something completely unrelated to work

You don't have to talk marketing for 75 minutes.
The activity is simply there to make meeting people easier.
### Who this is for
Especially relevant for:

  • Entrepreneurs
  • Agency owners
  • Digital marketers
  • Consultants
  • Freelancers
  • Creators
  • Startup founders
  • Business owners
  • Growth and marketing professionals

You don't need to sell marketing services.
You just need to be genuinely interested in meeting other people who build, market or operate businesses.
### What this is NOT
This is not:

  • A lead-generation mixer
  • A seminar
  • A pitching session
  • A place to aggressively collect prospects

If your main objective is to distribute business cards to everyone, this probably isn't the right event.
If you'd enjoy meeting a few thoughtful people and seeing where the conversation goes, it probably is.
### ☕ Optional afterward
We'll finish the formal walk around 6:15 PM.
Anyone who wants can continue for coffee, food or a drink nearby.
