Youth Entrepreneurship Conference 2018,

About the event

The DEM Association was founded in 2011, in order to represent the Digital Enterprise Management program, offered exclusively at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Our mission is to empower, inspire, and serve students who have passion for technology, business, marketing, design and entrepreneurship. The association aspires to build a space where students can continually grow with one another, and more importantly, bridge the gap between academia and the business world through workshops, keynotes and networking events, open to students in all programs and years

We are hosting the Young Entrepreneurs Conference on March 2018. The event will be held at the Globe and Mail Centre Venues. The Young Entrepreneurs Conference attracts thousands of students and industry professionals across Ontario, providing opportunities to connect,learn and showcase their problem solving skills in a fun and interactive fashion.

Why should you sponsor?

Since its inception in 2011, the event has secured over 1,000 participants from 12 different schools and universities, while raising over $13,000 from our partners and sponsors. We see this as a great opportunity for your brand to connect with curious minds and leave a lasting impression on students and professionals alike. 

The target audience number of the Young Entrepreneurs Conference is 300 attendees. Since late December 2017 and early January 2018, we have already sold 50 early bird ticket sales and we expect to sell out all of the available tickets. We have also secured our main keynote speakers (Darrell Keazer, CEO and Founder of Candybox Marketing; Karel Vredenburg, Design Director of IBM Canada.)

            Currently, we are in need of monetary sponsors who will allow us to create a meaningful and impactful event.  We are also in need of organizations who would like to table at our event in exchange for funds. To show our gratitude for your support, the Digital Enterprise Management Association would like to offer various forms of brand promotion. We are willing to work with you to accommodate your needs and requests.
