For our 13th edition, Startupfest returns to Montréal but with a new and exciting direction. This year we’re honing in on two major shifts in society; the augmentation of humans by machines, and the newfound importance of genuine human connection. In 2023, we’re embracing both of these changes and weaving them into every part of Canada’s original startup event.

Startupfest brings an incredible lineup of mentors and experts to give attendees one-on-one insights, as well as exceptional speakers with surprising, inspiring stories and the kind of content you won’t find anywhere else.
“There really isn’t another event like this.”
Margaret Dawson, Global Product Marketing at Red Hat
Practice what we preach
The new realities of augmented work and the increased importance of human connection will launch a wave of fundamentally different businesses. Startups need to adapt, and so do we. This year we’ll infuse AI tools to augment your festival experience while still focusing on meaningful content. We’ll also double down on serendipitous interactions and genuine connections, for which Startupfest has always been famous.
