When night fell, Heart Space came alive.
What began as a day of ideas, reflection, and conversation transformed into an evening of art, music, connection, and community during Toronto Tech Week.
Krista Kim Heart Space brought together entrepreneurs, artists, technologists, investors, students, ecosystem leaders, and curious minds inside Demo Room to explore the future of technology, creativity, identity, and human connection.
Presented by Schulich Startups, Pursuits Inc., and Demo Room, powered by Tenbeo, and made possible with the support of an incredible community of sponsors, partners, artists, staff, volunteers, and guests.
A very special thank you to Desjardins Group and Hellyer Foundation for helping make this flagship Toronto Tech Week experience possible, and to Krista Kim, Tenbeo, Marcel Donges, Asif Qayyum, Bernard Doucet, Pursuits Inc., Demo Room Inc., and everyone who helped bring Heart Space to life.
Special shout-out to YSpace, York University, and Black Entrepreneurship Alliance for presenting the Heart Space Social / Party and helping bring together such a diverse and vibrant community from across the ecosystem.

And this is only the beginning.
