About Event

Elevate Festival 2025 returns to Toronto’s Meridian Hall from October 7–9, 2025, bringing together ~15,000 curated attendees including startups, investors, accelerators, and ecosystem builders.

Hosted by Elevate (Canada’s leading tech + innovation festival), this activation—powered by BIZ—spotlights Black‑led founders through a branded tent and curated programming within the festival’s startup track.

During all three days, BIZ will host a custom-branded booth offering high visibility, stage recognition, and networking opportunities aligned with the Black Entrepreneurship Prize.

Sponsors receive booth access, stage time during winner recognition, and tickets for staff and founders.

This is an ideal occasion to elevate your startup’s visibility, create meaningful connections within a high-intent ecosystem, and engage with award-winning innovation.
