Before the main event begins, selected attendees will have access to a **pre-session for founders actively working on their Spring 2026 (X26) applications**. This session is designed to provide a clearer understanding of what YC looks for in founders and early-stage companies, how to approach the application with clarity and focus, common mistakes to avoid, and how to think about traction, narrative, and timing. ​Following the YC application session, the evening transitions into the full **Together Toronto experience**, featuring YC-founder talks, fireside conversations, and community open mic-highlighting real journeys, lessons learned, and practical insights from builders who have scaled, raised, or advised high-growth startups. ​This event is about more than just listening, it is about connecting. You will be in a room full of founders, investors, operators, and future collaborators who believe in the power of community. It is a chance to meet the people building what is next, share ideas, and be part of something bigger than yourself. **Featured speakers:** ​​[Ivan Tsarynny](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivantsarynny/), CEO & Co-Founder of [Feroot](http://www.feroot.com/) (YC W21) ​[Myra Arshad](https://www.linkedin.com/in/myra4/), Co-Founder & CEO of [ALT TEX](https://thealttex.com/) (YC S22) ​[Ryan Marien](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanmarien/), Co-Founder of [BioRender](https://www.biorender.com/) (YC W18) ​[Devon Gallowa](http://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=0)[y](https://www.linkedin.com/in/devongalloway/), Co-Founder & CTO at [Vidyard](https://www.vidyard.com/) (YC S11) and General Partner at [Garage Capital](https://www.garage.vc/)

\*These classes are not a language exchange, but instead are meant to be a step in between so that students feel confident maintaining in depth and grammatically correct oral conversations outside of class\* \***Meetup event numbers only tend to show new students registering and do not include returning students attending class.** **Per class, there is an average of 7 students.** The first 2 classes are free and then only cost between $15 and $35 depending on which type of class you want to continue with\* These French, English (For Spanish and French speakers only), and Spanish classes are primarily meant for adults who are travellers, or who are planning to live in a French, English, or Spanish-speaking country. The classes are primarily oral-based through guided conversations. They will teach you how to handle conversations in situations such as **"Going to the Convenience Store"**, **"Making Plans"**, **"Negotiating Prices"**, and **"Going out for a Drink"**. To ensure that students get used to using the language automatically, students will learn to maintain contextual conversations with timing before moving on to the next lesson.

Join the crew for a cost-split weekend at Tremblant. Slopes, hot tubs, and good vibes. We are kicking off **go further** with a simple mission: get good people together to do cool things. We have secured a chalet for the four nights and have **up to 6 spots available**. We are running this trip purely at cost to fill the house, and build our community. **The Itinerary:** * **Weds, Feb 4:** Our flight leaves Toronto Pearson Airport (**YYZ**) at 7:45am, landing in Calgary International Airport (**YYC**) at 10:15am local time. * From there we'll be picking up our rental car(s). If meeting in Calgary, we can pick you up from the airport, or arrange somewhere in the city. We'll grab a quick coffee/snack and head straight to Canmore for lunch, followed by our Airbnb check-in. The first evening will be an option to cook at the chalet or visit a local restaurant. * **Thurs, Feb 5-Sat, Feb 7:** We'll have 3 full days of skiing combined at Lake Louise and Banff Sunshine - which can be decided based on conditions and group preference. * During these days the car(s) will be dedicated to being at the ski resorts early enough to get in a full day (approx. 9am-3:30/4pm on the slopes). Note that driving time is 25-60+ minutes to get to the ski resorts from the chalet. * Any other activities (apres ski in Banff town, hot springs, etc.,) will be planned outside of these times, unless otherwise agreed upon by the group. If you plan to go off group itinerary you will need to arrange for your own transportation. * **Sun, Feb 8**: We'll check-out of our Airbnb at 11am. There will be a group option to stay in the Canmore area for lunch, or to spend time in the downtown Calgary area. Our departure flight back to Toronto is at 5:15pm, and will aim to arrive at the airport at approximately 3pm. **The Cost:** This is a shared-expense trip. The selected attendee will contribute approx. **$500-$600** to cover their share of the pooled costs: * ✅ **Accommodation:** 4 Nights in our shared chalet + access to hot tub ammenities. * ✅ **Transport:** SUV rental, gas and parking charges from Calgary Airport to Canmore, Banff, ski hills and group activities. **The Accommodations:** * **The Chalet:** Our Airbnb is a 5.0 star-rated 3 bedroom chalet located in one of the best areas of Canmore, 20 minutes from the gates of Banff National Park. It has several nice restaurants and stores in close walking distance, and a 10 min walk to the downtown Canmore strip! * **Beds/Bedrooms:** There are 3 bedrooms with 5 beds, ranging from double to king sized beds. * **Costs:** Approximate costs for the 4 nights will range from $350-$500/bed, or $87.50-$125 per night, depending on the the bed size and privacy provided. * **Priority:** Priority for rooms and beds will be to have all male and female guests in separate rooms first, then allowing for couples if available. Only one bedroom will be guaranteed as private. Please inquire for further details. * **Hot Tub:** Located within our chalet complex is a communal hot tub, available on a first-come, first-served basis during reserved time sessions. A maximum of 5 people are allowed in the hot tub at one time and the maximum usage time is 30 minutes per day. The hot tub is open daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. * **Parking:** We have 2 parking spots provided. **How to Join:** 1. **Select the "Attend" button.** 2. [Fill out our Ski Trip Questionnaire](https://forms.gle/xeNNhK5SRgAChwxu6) to let us know more details about you! 3.

We are back after a well needed break. This time we are staying in the city for another cafe hopping event. Lets meet at Scotiabank Arena entrance close to the Telus building and venture into different directions of downtown. Detailed map itinerary to follow closer to the date. I will let cafes know that we are coming but some cafes can be small or have no washrooms so please plan accordingly and drink responsibly. Haha. Its $2 event to cover the Meetup fee. You can pay using this link: https://buy.stripe.com/bJe00j7KXf3if8caTsdZ605 Thanks and see you all.

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

We'll play board games at the [Land-Grant Brewing Company](https://landgrantbrewing.com/). They have multiple [food trucks](https://landgrantbrewing.com/food/) on Sundays. Ray Ray's also has coffee, and the brewery has free water (and Jeni's ice cream). You can come late or leave early. Please just sign up so I know to expect you. **Notes on Parking** * You'll (probably) have to park on the street, but street parking is free on Sundays. * There are [parking garages](https://landgrantbrewing.com/parking/) a little farther away if you want. These are obviously not free, though. * There is a [lot next door](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B057'26.0%22N+83%C2%B000'40.9%22W/@39.957211,-83.0119921,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m12!1m7!3m6!1s0x88388f3efd89238b:0xc139207386232411!2sLand-Grant+Brewing+Company!8m2!3d39.9577613!4d-83.011426!16s%2Fg%2F1pzt7t9df!3m3!8m2!3d39.957211!4d-83.011347?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyMS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D) to the brewery that you're allowed to park in, but it is not free. I've never parked there, so I don't know anything about rates. (I'm told though that if you eat at Milo's Deli next door to this lot that Milo's will stamp your parking so it's free.) * You're going to see odd signs on [Lucas St](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B057'26.1%22N+83%C2%B000'40.3%22W/@39.957256,-83.0124134,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m10!1m5!3m4!2zMznCsDU3JzI4LjgiTiA4M8KwMDAnNDEuNSJX!8m2!3d39.957993!4d-83.011536!3m3!8m2!3d39.957256!4d-83.011197?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyMS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D) (saying it's a "private street") that will lead you to believe you're not allowed to park there, but you actually are. * Columbus parking cops literally do not work on Sundays. This means that, even if you're driving a non-EV, you can park in the EV spots near the brewery. **Games** I do bring many games, but please bring some of your own as well.
