Meraki Showcase @Toronto Tech Week
Toronto's builder community, together.
Toronto is full of builders - artists, engineers, designers, founders, tinkerers...quietly working on things they care about.
Meraki exists to bring those people into the same room.
To celebrate an incredible year of building, we're hosting our annual Symposium and Demo Day during Toronto Tech Week - an evening where members of the community get to formally present the projects they've been pouring themselves into. It's our favourite night of the year.
Whether you're a builder, an investor, an operator, or just someone who loves being around people making things - you belong here :)
UPDATE: DEMOER INTEREST FORM NOW OPEN: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfxsL5vne_s9OQoUfbDe3u5vtJmL1okvojQozZKW2EshuLprg/viewform
What’s happening:
A few members of the Meraki UofT community will be demoing and sharing their passion projects. You'll see small glimpses into what people are building, learning, and experimenting with right now.
You can expect:
Short demos from Meraki community members
Casual conversations around art, tech, and creative work
Food (yes, there will be food)
Space to meet people and trade ideas
Come curious! Come ready to talk about what you’re working on or what you want to work on.
A Note on the Meraki mindset
Meraki is built on the idea that creative work is better when it’s shared.
When you come, you’re not just an attendee, you’re a part of the space. We ask everyone to:
Be welcoming to newcomers
Ask thoughtful questions
Share generously, even if your work feels “unfinished”
Help make the room feel warm, curious, and alive
If you see someone standing alone...go say hi & make a new friend.
What is Meraki UofT?
Meraki UofT is a student-led builder community at the University of Toronto.
(we're friends of Socratica!!)
We bring together people across disciplines; engineering, art, design, business, research, and beyond! People who care about making things and learning in public.
If you like building, experimenting, or exploring new ideas, Meraki is for you.
Filming & media notice
This event will be photographed and filmed for Meraki UofT’s (and sponsors) promotional and archival use (social media, website, and future event materials).
By attending, you consent to being recorded. If you have any concerns or would prefer not to be filmed, please let a Meraki organizer know... we’re happy to accommodate.
Food will be provided.

We’re excited to share what we've been working on.
See you soon 🤍
