Europe is a massive opportunity for Canadian scale ups. The hard part is knowing where to start. This morning, we're making that easier.
The Reverse Pitch flips the script: instead of founders pitching to a room, European Trade Representatives and innovation ecosystems representatives pitch to you, giving you a direct, firsthand briefing on their markets, the support available, and exactly which Canadian companies they want to meet.
Come hungry. Leave with a clearer picture of where your company fits in Europe.
What you'll hear about:
Which European markets are actively looking for Canadian scale ups right nowNon-dilutive funding, grants, and EU-backed programs you may already qualify forSector-specific sandbox programs for testing your product in-market with reduced regulatory frictionSoft-landing resources like accelerators, founder communities, and investor networks on the groundPractical first steps for market entry, straight from the people who run these ecosystems
Who this is for:
Canadian scale ups at late seed to Series A who are seriously considering European expansion in the next 12–18 months. If Europe is on your roadmap but you're not sure where to start, this is the room to be in.
This is the room where your European expansion begins. Morning refreshments provided. Spots are limited.
