Even those who are not so new to incubation will take away concrete information from this one!

Make room in your schedule for two days packed full of workshops, incubator tours, receptions and innovative experiences. You’ll witness the best of best practices, learn about some of Canada’s hottest incubation programs and have plenty of time to network with old colleagues and meet with new friends.
