With 80+ different businesses in attendance, the night was filled with innovative ideas, networking, panel discussions and more. We also had welcome drinks courtesy of Empress 1908 Gin.

Our panel discussion included 3 reporters from mainstream media houses in Toronto, including Graham “Skip” Dillard from Audacy’s WXBK-FM 94.7, Daniel Reyes Cocka from Breakfast Television and Tony Gayle from FADED4U.
