Build North: Demo Day 🍁
Ten teams. Ten days of building. One stage. 🍁
After a ten-day virtual build sprint that brought together ambitious AI builders from across Canada, the top 10 teams take the stage to demo what they built and compete for prizes across five award categories!
Live demos, live judging, winner announcements, and an evening of networking with food and drinks on us. Come for the demos, stay for the conversations, and meet the builders, founders, and funders shaping what’s next! 🚀
