Connecting founders, funders, and supporters to fast-track impactful growth

 
 

We’re thrilled to announce that The Odlum Brown Forum Pitch Semi-Final is coming back to Toronto. 

But this time, we’re doing things differently! 

Together, we’ll watch some of Canada’s most promising entrepreneurs share their business visions. Then, we’ll directly invite our nationwide network of entrepreneurs, investors, and professionals to get involved and support their growth.

That means that after you’ve heard pitches from 10 incredible entrepreneurs, you’ll be able to connect with them on potential investment opportunities, partnerships, and collaborations.

SF Testimonials

“I'm a big fan of Forum events because every one I've attended has brought me new connections and opportunities to grow my business, while introducing me to successful, inspiring entrepreneurs who share their expertise and what they've learned along the way.”

“Starting a business can be a lonely experience but being surrounded by others in the same position and supported by industry experts has made the task going forward seem a little less daunting.”


“Above all, the welcoming and supportive community fostered from beginning to end was what I most appreciated.”

“The Forum lives up to its mission of fostering innovation, collaboration, and excellence. I left with a sense of confidence and connection to a helpful resource.”

“Inspiring, innovative, amazing people.”

“Inspiring, supportive, value… Loved this event, thanks for having me!”

“To make space for connection amongst the daily grind has been the most rewarding use of time in our early growth.”

“It is so inspiring to sit in a room with so many women taking on a similar journey!”

“No egos, just women who supported each other at all stages of their journey and cheered each other on!”

“It was a kind of energy that I didn't even know was missing from my entrepreneurial journey.”

“What a great networking opportunity. I was able to connect with, meet and do business with a couple of entrepreneurs that I met while participating in The Forum. Individuals I probably would not have met otherwise.  I recommend connecting with the community.”
