🍦 Chill Chats: Tech & Curious
Presented by The New Hire
Ready to scoop up some fresh ideas and make real connections? The New Hire is back with our next event, 🍨 Chill Chats: Tech & Curious — Conversations, Connections & Career Paths in Tech
As part of Toronto Tech Week, we’re bringing back Chill Chats after the incredible energy and turnout from last year — a laid-back evening designed to bring together aspiring and seasoned professionals across tech for a little inspiration, a lot of conversation, and some good vibes.
Whether you work in product, marketing, sales, customer success, operations — or you’re simply tech-curious — this night is for you.
Last year, we had people come out from companies like Mastercard, Interac, EcoVadis, and Uber to connect, learn more about different avenues within tech, and meet others navigating similar career questions and ambitions.
Come share what you’re building, exploring, dreaming about, or questioning in a casual, collaborative space where no one’s pitching, but everyone’s listening.
Scrap traditional networking. No panels. No pressure. Just good conversations with people who are curious about growth, careers, and the many paths within tech.
✨ Whether you’re:
Looking to pivot into tech
Curious about different roles or functions in the industry
Early in your career and wanting to grow your circle
Or simply looking to meet thoughtful, ambitious people
We are right with you.
