CTO Craft Con: Toronto is now sold out.
After packed-out shows in London and Berlin, we’re bringing CTO Craft Con to North America for the first time — and Toronto has officially sold out.
This isn’t just another conference. It’s where real conversations happen — the kind that go beyond the slides. Attendees will hear from top-tier speakers, dive into hands-on sessions, and connect with tech leaders who know what it’s like because they’ve been through it too.
Whether they’re leading a high-growth startup or navigating enterprise complexity, they’ll leave with ideas they can use, stories that stick, and the reminder that they’re not in it alone.
At the heart of it all? A community built on openness, support, and the belief that leadership doesn’t have to be lonely.
Didn’t get a ticket?
A waitlist is now open for any cancellations. You’ll also be the first to hear about future events.
Industry Leading Speakers.
