About Toronto Tech Week

Toronto has always been a city of builders — people who turn ideas into companies, neighbourhoods into hubs, and ambition into momentum.

Toronto Tech Week (TTW) was created to make that visible. The talent was already here. The creativity was already here. The energy was already here. What Toronto lacked was a moment that brought it all together.

In 2024, a small group of volunteer organizers set out to create that moment. Instead of launching another conference, they imagined something different: a week built by the community itself. A decentralized platform where anyone could host an event, share what they’re working on, open their doors, and contribute to the grassroots story of what Canadian tech is and can be.

What started as a simple idea became a movement. The first year of TTW exceeded every expectation, with hundreds of independently hosted events and tens of thousands of people filling the city. New ideas, partnerships, and ventures were born. It wasn’t just another week on the calendar, it was a moment for Toronto to see itself.

From that foundation, TTW has grown into the annual gathering it is today. A celebration created not top-down, but by the people who make this community thrive.

As Toronto continues to build what’s next, TTW’s mission is to help ensure the world knows.

Built by Toronto, for the world.
