Join Exclusive Business Networking Events Across the Greater Toronto Area

Connect, collaborate, and grow with top professionals and entrepreneurs in your city.

Building Real, Lasting Connections in the GTA

We believe that lasting business relationships are built face-to-face, not just screen-to-screen. In a region as vast as the GTA, finding the right business connections in Toronto can be a challenge. That's why we host premier networking events across 10 key cities, from Toronto to Mississauga and Ajax. Each event is tailored for regional professionals, providing a local hub for our 800+ business members to build trust, share ideas, and foster collaboration. We're more than just professional meetups in Ontario; we're a community.

Why Our Networking Events Stand Out

We're different. Our events are the living expression of our 800+ member community.

A Proven Community

You're not just walking into a random room. You're joining an exclusive, vetted community. Unlike open-to-all meetups, our events are attended by driven professionals who are serious about mutual growth.

Focus on Trust & Collaboration

We focus on trust and collaboration, not just exchanging business cards. Our goal is to help you build lasting, valuable relationships.

Integrated with Our Network

Events are fully integrated with our Member Directory and Programs, giving you multiple touchpoints to connect with members before, during, and after the event.

I've recently joined in Connecting GTA and my experience was beyond my expectation. I've got the opportunity to network with people from different backgrounds which is very crucial to grow my business and career. And I must say, the events are very well organized and the people are very welcoming and polite. I'm totally impressed and hope to grow together.

I have been a member since 2019 and have had the pleasure networking with alot of professionals in different industries. This has helped scale my business and also make valuable connections. CGTA does a ton of events throughout the year to network, learn and collaborate. I highly recommend Connecting GTA to anyone looking to meet great connections.

What makes Connecting GTA events different from other networking events?

Our events are curated and community-focused. They are an extension of our 800+ member network, focusing on deep collaboration and trust rather than just selling.

 Both! Our events are diverse. We host startup events Toronto as well as exclusive roundtables for established industry leaders.

We welcome partners. Please visit our Contact Page to discuss sponsorship opportunities with our team.

While many events are member-exclusive or offer member discounts, we host several guest-friendly events each month. Check our upcoming events calendar for details.

We host over 75 events annually across the Greater Toronto Area. Our main hubs, like Toronto, Mississauga, and Pickering, have multiple events per month, while other regions have regular quarterly or bi-monthly meetups.
