Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, the Myhal Centre is a state-of-the-art facility designed to foster collaboration, innovation, and forward-thinking engineering education. Its central location makes it easily accessible by transit, bike, or car, and it’s surrounded by vibrant city life, dining, and green spaces.

Day 2 Unconference

On the second day, the event will transition into an unconference format — a participant-driven model where you shape the agenda. We’ll be using a series of modern, flexible classrooms and collaboration spaces located on the 3rd through 5th floors of the Myhal Centre.

These spaces are designed for interactive, small-group discussions and workshops, featuring the technology enhanced active learning (TEAL) rooms equipped with whiteboards, movable furniture, and projection systems.

Whether you're hosting a session, leading a discussion, or joining a spontaneous brainstorm, the environment is set up to support creativity, inclusivity, and deep engagement.
