A joint partnership between the City of Brampton and Toronto Metropolitan University, formerly Ryerson University, Brampton Venture Zone is a purpose-driven, non-equity incubator that is dedicated to building and growing early stage technology startups in Brampton. We enable connections between aspiring entrepreneurs, current founders, industry experts, funders, and customers to build solutions that address hyperlocal issues in the community.

Our virtual programming teaches first-time founders the foundations of market development, enables industry partner collaborations and helps technology startups develop a playbook for market launch and growth beyond BVZ.

Our cohorts are comprised of entrepreneurs from all walks of life, from first time founders to serial entrepreneurs looking for a new challenge, or mid career professionals looking to pivot in their careers, we believe that entrepreneurship should be accessible to and inclusive of all.
