Welcome to The Startup Train

Posted on Tue 01 July 2025 in misc

For the first time in well over a decade, The Ontario Startup Train isn’t running this year.

What started as a simple idea, packing founders, investors, and builders onto a train bound for Startupfest, became something far more meaningful over the years. It was a moving community, a mobile accelerator, and a legendary ride into one of Canada's most vibrant startup gatherings.

This year, the train may be parked. But the stories are not.

I’m starting to collect and share stories from past Startup Train adventures here. If you have a memory, moment, or milestone that started on the train (or was somehow shaped by it), I’d love to hear from you.

Send me your story

Let’s keep the spirit alive, even if we’re off the rails for now.
