Tired of wasting time and money on crappy hotel banquet halls?
StartWell is the all-inclusive campus for happier company events.
Since 2017 we've given companies a better place to meet and entertain in downtown Toronto - where hospitality meets functionality and every session is happier.
Our 'one stop shop' approach gives you everything you need when you book - so you don't have to run around. Free espresso bar service, white boards, full AV (with stage support) and stunning video streams & recordings come standard.
Available for half-day, full-day, and multi-day bookings.
★ Over 1,000 corporate events hosted in Toronto ★ Built-in multi-camera recording & live streaming ★ Located on King Street West
Book up to 3 venues at the same location.
These event space options can support any type of corporate gathering in Toronto (think all-hands meetings, executive retreats, conferences, SKOs, team building or coworking days, offsites, workshops and more.) They're on our second and third floors - with extra breakout rooms on the ground floor below. Optionally combine them for all sorts of complex agendas!
-
Dedicated Offsite Venue
Seating capacity: 150
Welcome guests through a dedicated street entrance directly into the venue. This large space features a built-in bar and has internal access to lower level breakout spaces and our main reception.
-
The Third Floor
Seating capacity: 70
A large suite with 3 internal breakout rooms, 2 private washrooms, a kitchen for catering drops and tons of natural light - especially in the afternoon (West facing.)
We also have smaller meeting rooms - for independent booking or to support larger sessions.
Our ground floor has meeting rooms for 2 to 16 people around a single table. They all have white boards, smart TVs and video conferencing. Perfect for one-off meetings, recurring team days or as add-ons for larger event venues on the floors above.
-
Fast Forward
Seating capacity: 6
A cosy exposed brick meeting room on the first floor of our main building near the library. With a connected TV, large white board and window.
We're a million times better than hotels, banquet halls and coworking spaces. Seriously.
Never pay extra for event photography, stage recordings or video conferences again.
StartWell event venues feature multi-camera video capture and broadcast: built-it and included with venue rental.
We turn meetings and events into experiences - which can be shared globally through live broadcasts and professional stage recordings.
Our three large venues all have the same presentation, video broadcast and recording technology built-in; with no wires, tripods or camera operators.
Our team manages stage AV for you, so you simply show up and present content to your audience. Plus, we take photos for you!
