2022 Ontario Innovation Expo Sponsorship Opportunity

Gaining a reputation for its incredible connection-building opportunities and introductions, Innovation Guelph’s Innovation Expo celebrates and showcases innovative companies and their products and services. For 2022, we are back in person for our 4th event – live and ready to welcome you (and your ~700+ friends) to our tradeshow floor on October 13, 2022!

Sponsoring this event will allow your company’s logo and brand to be on display not only on October 13, 2022, but on several occurrences leading up to this exciting day. In front of hundreds of startup entrepreneurs, and thoughtfully placed throughout the web, your company’s brand will be recognized for supporting innovative startups and the hard-working founders who are working diligently to build back Canada’s economy after a few very tough years.

With a passion for business acceleration, the IG team, led by Innovation Expo Manager Mickey Campeau, will deliver a one-day tradeshow in Guelph, ON that will be full of excitement and surprises. This event truly addresses the needs of all audiences and facilitates connections – with sponsors, investors, experts, potential clients/customers, media and more! We hope to welcome your company to our growing list of supporting partners.

Please contact us for more information.
