What we’re about
SAPNA Toronto stands for South Asian Professional Networking Association. This is an opportunity to meet and greet South Asian professionals all across the Greater Toronto Area from all walks of life. Whether if you are an entrepreneur, professional, or student this group is for you.

Although SAPNA is the acronym, it also means 'dream' in various South Asian mother tongues. Many professionals are striving to accomplish their professional dream, and this association opens them to:
- Share and promote their business
- Seek new partnerships
- Connect with like-minded individuals
- Expand networks while seeking for the next career move
SAPNA is dedicated to connect individuals online and offline with an array of discussions, workshops, and social events.
Are you open to doing this differently? Imagine the darkest or hardest path or crisis to overcome and HOW does one find the courage and resilience to move forward and upward.
