School 2.0 AI Business Innovation Conference & Startup Challenge

With AI growing at an exponential rate, new opportunities emerge.

Join high school students from across Ontario for a one-day AI business innovation conference and startup challenge designed to inspire the next generation of innovators, entrepreneurs, and future business leaders at the University of Toronto Mississauga.

Hosted by ICUBE UTM and The Erindale Academy, the School 2.0 AI Business, Innovation Conference & Startup Challenge gives students the opportunity to learn from youth entrepreneurs, startup founders, university innovation leaders, and industry professionals — then apply what they learn to a real-world AI startup challenge. Students may choose to participate in the full Conference + Startup Challenge or
attend as Conference Only participants to learn, network, and watch selected student pitch presentations.

No prior business, startup, or AI competition experience is required — just curiosity, creativity, and the drive to learn.
