​MakersLounge Toronto: The Match Edition 🀝

​We can’t help you find your soulmate, but we can help you find your skillmate. We want to match you with someone who has the skills you need, and someone who needs the skills you have so you can exchange skills, expertise, resources, and connections so you can get rid of any bottlenecks.

β€‹πŸ“ When & Where Tuesday, December 16th - 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM Location: New Stadium - 83 Walnut Ave, Toronto, ON M5V 2S1

​Itinerary:

​5:30-6:30pm Arrival & work on your own projects

​6:30-7:30pm 4 rounds of 15mins of matching

​7:30pm Interest corners & open connection - go deeper with your best matches or connect with new people

β€‹βœ¨ What's Happening This isn't a pitch night. This isn't a demo day. This is about people.

​Whether you're looking for a co-founder, a collaborator for your next project, a mentor to guide you, a mentee to support, or gain support/info/resources/connections in areas that aren’t your strong suit - this is your night to find them. No project required. Just show up as you are.

β€‹πŸŽ― Why You Should Be Here

  • ​Find your match β€” co-founder, teammate, mentor, or mentee

  • ​Skip the awkward networking β€” we've structured it so conversations actually happen

  • ​Meet builders across tech, art, design, and entrepreneurship

  • ​Be part of Toronto's most supportive maker community

​πŸ‘₯ Who Should Attend

  • ​Founders looking for a co-founder

  • ​Makers with skills to offer (dev, design, marketing, ops, etc.)

  • ​People with ideas but no team yet

  • ​Experienced builders open to mentoring

  • ​Newcomers looking for guidance and community

  • ​Anyone curious about what they might build next β€” with the right people

β€‹πŸŽ¬ The Evening You'll arrive, then rotate through conversations designed to help you find your people. After that, we'll open up themed corners where you can connect based on what you're looking for. The night ends with open connection so you can go deeper with your best matches.
