CS Toronto US Attendees

CS TORONTO // 11 + 12 MAY 2017

WHAT IS CS TORONTO?

For twelve years Creative Social has been bringing together the most respected minds within advertising, technology and design to explore the most interesting cities on the planet. CS Toronto will be the 27th CS Global event.

CS Toronto aims to put a spotlight on the most interesting people, places and companies in the city. We believe that the best inspiration comes from opening our minds to new cultures and experiences. From tiny start-ups pushing the innovation boundaries, to world class thinkers, doers and game changers, an overdose if inspiration is guaranteed.

Take a look at THIS VIDEO of CS Los Angeles to give you an idea of what CS Global events are all about.

“Creative Social is one of the top 5 influences on my

career. The CS Globals make me fresh again.”

WHY TORONTO?

Toronto is the most multiculturally diverse city on the planet: over 140 languages are spoken. With this unique mixture of people calling it home there's no wonder the cities creative energy is flourishing. Toronto has become the undisputed capital of Canadian innovation, with more than 600 start-ups, the country’s largest cluster of universities and colleges pumping out research, and the deepest venture capital pockets in the land.

There is a fresh international buzz about Toronto. Perhaps it's the influx of flush new residents from across the globe; or was it the Pan-Am Games that shone a spotlight on the city in 2015? Either way, Toronto is waking up to its own greatness and we can’t wait to explore it.


“Having a chance to chat with people that created work that you respect, and understanding the thought and energy behind that is a priceless experience.” PJ Pereira, Founder, Pereira & O’Dell, San Francisco

“CS Globals are an opportunity to leave the day

job behind and fill back up with some of the most

inspirational speakers you’ll hear all year.You spend two days with the brightest and

best from our industry and it’s the time in between the events that are as special as the talks

themselves. You build relationships, grow as a
