Ten years ago, community leaders formed Branded: Youth Entrepreneurship Conference – brandedto.ca. Branded is now an annual event organized by a not-for-profit collective that supports Black, newcomer, and vulnerable youth entrepreneurs with cash to support their business, networking, business consultation, and mentorship opportunities. A key piece of Branded is our pitch contest, which provides entrepreneurs with over $15 000 in cash. For our 10th anniversary, Branded 2023 will feature a keynote speaker, personalized business consultations, a lunch and link, and a pitch contest with a top prize of $10,000, a second prize of $7000, a third prize of $4000, and $1000 fourth and fifth prize winners.
