Toothpod featured in the The Globe and Mail today 🦷 😃 highlighting companies in Canada’s MedTech innovation ecosystem! Jared Lindzon highlights a key point: “This year, the Government of Canada intends to invest nearly $16-billion combined in science and technology” I think this really highlights that there are so many amazing resources in Canada, I.e grants including IRAP, SRED, and my favourite Mitacs. There are also SO many amazing incubators and accelerators like: ✅NEXT Canada ✅University of Toronto Entrepreneurship ✅Innovation Factory ✅UTEST, University of Toronto ✅Health Innovation Hub Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto ✅Lab2Market ✅Creative Destruction Lab ✅SpinUp at UTM I’m a big believer in this: if you go to the U.S. to build a company, remember who helped you start, come back, give back, and be a leader that gives back, so others can do the same and learn from your success.

Toboggan Flats Turns One 🚀 “If it was easy, someone would have done it already.” Launching a new idea takes time—especially in the housing sector. Add the challenge of introducing a new category of housing—coliving—to Canada, and you’ve got yourself a patience-building exercise for the ages. But we need affordable housing for young people downtown NOW. We have felt that tension every day for the past 365. Hills, bumps, turns, thrills, laughs, steeps and, of course, flats. It's been a wild ride as we celebrate our first anniversary. And we’re seeing more fun ahead as we jump on for year two! 1. Started and incorporated: Evolved from an idea emanating out of Youthful Cities to an independent venture. 2. Built a brand we love: A name and imagery that’s already creating buzz in housing conversations. 3. Built a team with diverse lived experiences and housing and coliving expertise. 4. Assembled an incredible team of policy advisors. 5. Added young professional advisors bringing fresh perspectives to our brand of coliving. 6. Partnered with a group of really smart organizations to be among the first to better understand youth housing needs and their perspectives on coliving. 7. Joined a global coliving incubator to maximize learning from a growing knowledge base. 8. Met with six municipalities to explore partnerships and solutions. One of them, City of Calgary, created a coliving conversion incentive for downtown revitalization. 9. Designed a world-first assessment model for office-to-coliving conversions. 10. Test-fitted 3 million square feet of office space across six Canadian cities with that model. 11. Spoke on city, national and global stages, championing coliving as a solution to Canada’s affordable housing supply and quality challenges. 12. Got the US and Canadian media talking about youth, coliving and inventive affordable housing solutions. +1 Bought our very own super awesome vintage toboggan—and it’s as cool as it sounds. Scanning the slopes of Year Two We’ve got big plans for the next 12 months. Toboggan Flats will: • Raise investment funds to grow our team and gear up for our first buildings. Launch our first coliving buildings—likely in Toronto, Ottawa or Calgary or all three…:) • Expand municipal understanding of and support for coliving. •Establish a National Youth Housing Coalition with Youthful Cities and many others to spotlight the need for more and better housing options for young people. •Accelerate awareness and interest in co-living nationwide. Oh, and when the first big snow hits Toronto, we’ll take the day off and ride our new toboggan. You are all invited. Want the full story? Check it out Here! https://lnkd.in/guD93waU
