A major tech event is rolling back in town and this time, even more big-name speakers are set to take the stage.

The Elevate Festival is coming to Toronto from Sept. 26 to 28, returning for its fifth annual event hosted at Meridian Hall, the St. Lawrence Centre and the Design Exchange in Toronto.

This year’s headliners include Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland, acclaimed journalist Lisa LaFlamme and Ayesha Curry, CEO and Founder of Sweet July.

This year will see recurring programs for attendees as well as new ones, such as masterclasses and “Elevate Goes Late.”

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a young professional, an investor, or a startup founder, there’s something for everyone.

“Canada isn’t an aspiring technology power – Canada has arrived,” Lisa Zarzeczny, co-founder and CEO of Elevate said in a company press release.

“This year’s festival will unite Canadian innovators and provide meaningful opportunities to learn, connect with diverse stakeholders, and exchange ideas centered around our nation’s well-being, sustainability and equity.”
