C100 Growth Summit 2020

GROWTH SUMMIT is an invitation-only two-day (un)conference for C100 Members and CXOs of high-growth startups. C100’s Summit will amplify the voices of Canadian shapers and builders "from far and wide".

Growth Summit will highlight the stories of Canada's growth-stage technology companies to a global audience to draw as a source of inspiration and a call-to-action to position Canada as the emerging home of entrepreneurship.

Program

Opening Night Dinners: February 12, 6-9:30 pm

On the eve of the Summit, join one of five private, intimate dinners with other C100 members and Canadian thought leaders (limited seating available). All dinners converge for a nightcap later on.

Summit: February 13, 8:30-4pm

C100’s Growth Summit invites a curated group of C100 Members, Charter Members, leaders of Canadian growth-stage companies, and corporate executives to build community and inspire Canadian leaders from across cities and borders. Founders and executives from Canada’s fastest growing technology companies will be immersed in a day of small-group, facilitated, and “off-the-record” discussions where they can initiate long-term peer-to-peer relationships, engage in meaningful conversations and learn from those who are a few steps ahead. Participants are encouraged to speak openly and candidly; everyone should be prepared to play a role and collaborate.
