Spring into Ignition with an afternoon of inspiration at the IO Ignition Cohort 14 Pitch Finale! We are back again with the beloved hybrid pitch finale event! Join us in person or from the comfort of your own home and tune in to 17 innovative tech entrepreneurs pitching their businesses LIVE!

Cohort 14 is ready to WOW you! You will be hearing from talented individuals creating tech businesses in industries like health care, IoT, Immigration, Business Management, Video Games, all using a mix of SaaS, Marketplaces and Hardware. At the end of their pitch, you will understand their “why” and the vision that drives their startup.

On top of that, these individuals are battling it out for the Best Pitch award as well as gaining your vote for Crowd Favourite. The stakes are high as this comes with an extra six months of one-on-one mentorship from our leading advisors!

We look forward to welcoming several of you in person at our state-of-the-art facilities at Bayview Yards. An approved number of participants will land onsite tickets through a lottery – please be sure to indicate your interest in joining us in person by checking the box when you register for this event on Eventbrite! Your health and safety are our top priority. If your ticket is chosen and you choose to join us in person, we look forward to greeting you and our event precautions will remain in place as the Ontario Government cautiously and gradually eases on public health measures.

Attend this epic event and start dreaming of what you could be capable of building in 2022.
