The Toronto fintech scene is electric like no other! ⚡

We had a blast hosting an intimate fintech fizz & biz happy hour last week to bring together fintech aficionados in a hi-fi listening cocktail bar.

Special thank you to our co-host @talbschwartz from Canadian Fintech and to everyone who joined us that evening!

This is the first of many events in Toronto, and we hope to see you at a future Headline community event in a city near you.
