What a way to kick off autumn in our new home! 🍂

Last week, we were thrilled to welcome Toronto’s legal innovation community to the Autumn Showcase, where five of our incubated founders took the stage to share what they’re building.

The evening brought together founders, EIRs, partners, legal professionals, investors, and our broader innovation community.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined and helped us start this next season!
New space, new solutions, and plenty of momentum for what’s ahead! 🚀

Elevate is officially Nrth, and we’re excited to be part of what comes next.

For years, Elevate has brought together communities from across Canadian tech to meet, share ideas, open doors and build something bigger together.

Now, Nrth is taking that energy beyond the Festival.

More connections. More opportunities. More ways for founders, builders and leaders to find the people and ideas that can help them make their next move.

As a Community Partner, The LIZ is proud to be along for the ride, and we can’t wait to bring our community with us.

Elevate got us here. Now we’re heading Nrth. ⬆️

See you there, !
