Startup Women Advocacy Network 2025 (Free program)

To help showcase women-identifying entrepreneurs from coast to coast to coast, we are delighted to continue the Startup Women Advocacy Network (SWAN) initiative in 2025. There is a lack of awareness and storytelling of early stage, women-identifying entrepreneurs in Canada. As a national convener and true to our core values, we want to connect entrepreneurs with the support they need to help tackle this gap.
