Events
Small rooms, real decisions, no sponsors and no press. What is discussed inside stays inside.
16 seats. 5 remaining.
Chapter session
4 members open the books on a deployment that did not go to plan, and the room works the problem with them. No deck, no recording, no press.
Members reserve through the portal at no charge. Guests attend by introduction only, one session before applying.
Write to us if your firm should sit in on a pitch session. No fee, and no cheque expected on the night.
Also scheduled
Session details go to members through their chapter. What appears here is a short list on purpose.
Pitch session
Montreal
5 founders put an idea in front of the room, with invited firms sitting in. 15 minutes each, then the room takes it apart. The answer you get here is the one the market would give you 18 months later.

Chapter session
Toronto
The first Toronto room. Capital markets, growth equity and enterprise software, at the table together for the first time.

45 minutes on the questions that stalled 3 enterprise deals last quarter, and the answers that unstalled them.

Formats
Quarterly, per chapter
12 to 16 members, one agenda, no deck and no press. You bring the decision you are stuck on.
Twice yearly, per chapter

Twice yearly
Every chapter in one room for 2 closed days. The whole membership, in one building.
Monthly, virtual
45 minutes with one operator on one real deployment, including the part that did not work.
Past sessions
Titles and dates only. Nothing said inside a session is published or recorded, which is the reason people say it.
Chapter session
Montreal
3 members walked the room through the paper their boards signed, including the clause each of them would now write differently.
Old Montreal
Executive briefing
National
One operator, one deployment in a supervised industry, and a frank account of the 11 weeks it spent stuck with legal.
Virtual
Chapter session
Montreal
Reserved capacity, committed spend and the contracts nobody reads twice. 2 allocators and an operator who had signed all 3.
Downtown Montreal
Executive briefing
National
Who you hire once the pilot works, why it is almost never the person who built it, and what that costs internally.
Virtual
16 people is the largest room in which nobody performs.
