UTE Annual Report 2025-2026
Another incredible year for the U of T Entrepreneurship community!
This year, we supported more than 1,400 entrepreneurial teams across U of T’s 13 innovation hubs, welcomed BioLabs University of Toronto as our newest accelerator, and celebrated the launch of the $40M Genesys University Innovation Fund to strengthen life sciences innovation and commercialization.
PitchBook ranks U of T #17 globally and #2 in Canada for undergraduate founders, while also placing the university among the world’s top 10 publicly funded institutions for entrepreneurship. We are also #1 in Canada for graduate student founders (including women-led companies) and MBA founders. These rankings reflect the impact of U of T’s entrepreneurial community that has raised more than $27 billion in venture funding and created 27,600 jobs over the past decade.
All of this is possible thanks to the community of students, alumni, founders, researchers and partners who continue to show why big ideas start here.
