About MTL UpStarts 

MTL UpStarts is a free, youth-oriented entrepreneurship boot camp that will teach you the fundamentals behind starting up a business. If you want to become an agent of change in your community, this is an opportunity you don't want to miss out on. 

The first edition of MTL UpStarts will take place from November 18 - 20, 2016.

​What to expect?

  • Discovery: ​explore  entrepreneurship 
  • Collaboration: work in small teams
  • Connections: meet students from other high schools in your city
  • Hands-on Learning: participate in workshops
  • Mentorship: learn from some of Montreal’s most successful minds​

The theme of the first edition of MTL UpStarts is The Smart School.

We will focus how technology and the Internet of Things can be leveraged to improve a student's academic & extra-curricular experience. Participants will be encouraged to identify the real-world problems they encounter daily at school, and will be provided with the resources and coaching they need in order to find tech-driven solutions.

Who is it for?

Applications for MTL UpStarts are open to students between the ages of 14 to 18. If you are a dreamer, doer or change maker, this event is for you. No previous experience is required. The students that get accepted into the boot camp will attend for free.
