WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING... 

Lea P., Realtor

This was my first time attending MAMACON® & I have to say, I felt so welcomed. This really is a very special group of mompreneurs. I've been to other events that feel kind of stiff and stale, but this one is so joyful. You learn a lot, but you also build powerful relationships that. can help you take your business to the next level. Even though I didn't know many people, I instantly felt like I belonged. I will be back! 

Nikki S., Marketing Expert & MAMACON® speaker 

"MAMACON® in Toronto swept me off my feet with its heartwarming and welcoming community. Not only was I captivated by the personal stories shared, but the energy of all participants was simply contagious! Lianne and her team seamlessly combined classiness and fun, featuring top-notch vendors in a stunning venue with breathtaking views for a thoughtfully orchestrated event." 

Victoria S., Photographer

"MAMACON® is THE event of the year - it's not to be missed, and the place to be! Being involved in the day also elevates not only the experience, but the networks, leads, face time, authority and visibility within such a valuable and influential community of women-led businesses and dream clients all in one room. Thank you Mamas & Co. for such an incredible day that still continues to have lasting business impacts!"

Andrea M, Skincare Business &  MAMACON® Sponsor

"MAMACON® is a powerful experience for mamas in business. The energy is magnetic and the connections you make there with like minded female entrepreneurs could ultimately be what moves the needle in your business. Such a special opportunity to push the boundaries for what’s possible through education, growth and connection."

Cindy W., Fundraising Consultant

"I've been attending MAMACON® for the last several years and each year it gets better and better. The speakers, the energy... there really isn't another event like this anywhere. The quality of the people and the value in the networking is something that I haven't seen at any other business event. This community really wants to see you succeed and I'm still in touch with many of the mamas I met at this event years ago. If you are a mom with a business or plans to start a business, this is THE event to be at."

Frequently Asked Questions

🎉 Who else will be at MAMACON®? 

MAMACON® is for anyone who identifies as a female and a mom, who has their own business or is thinking of starting a business. We pride ourselves on bringing together smart, interesting women across many different backgrounds, industries, and stages of business. Seriously, our attendees are truly incredible people. 

 

🎉 When is MAMACON® and how long is it? 

MAMACON® takes place on Friday November 7th. We start in the morning and we wrap around 5:00pm.

 

🎉 Where does MAMACON® take place? 

MAMACON® takes place at the stunning Globe & Mail Centre at 351 King St. East on the 17th floor. 

 

🎉 How do I get to MAMACON®? 

The Globe & Mail Centre is centrally located in the heart of downtown Toronto. While we do provide parking information, we highly recommend taking transit or using a ride share service. 

 

🎉 What if I am from out of town? 

Not to worry, a large portion of our guests do not live in Toronto. Once you purchase your MAMACON® ticket we will follow up with hotel and travel information as needed. We always offer at least a few hotels for you to choose from. 

 

🎉 I'm brand new to business, is MAMACON® right for me? 

Yes! At least 50% of our attendees would identify as "new to business" with many of our guests still at the side-hustle or idea phase. 

 

🎉 I am a seasoned business owner, is MAMACON® right for me? 

Yes! While we are very open to all stages of entrepreneurs, we ensure the content we cover is applicable to all business ages and stages. 

 

🎉 What if I don't know anyone? Will I feel awkward? 

Not at all! MAMACON® is very welcoming to new people with at least 40% of our audience being brand new to us. We also offer structured networking opportunities throughout the day so you have no option but to get to know people! Many guests come knowing no one and leave with a bunch of new business friends and connections. 

 

🎉 I'm not really a conference person, what's the vibe? 

MAMACON® is likely the most fun, inspiring "conference" you've ever been to. In fact, it's more like a fun day out with your girlfriends than an actual conference. Think: empowering, joyful, and positive energy all around and you're on the right track. 

 

🎉 Can I promote my business at MAMACON®?

Yes! There are plenty of opportunities throughout the day for you to connect with others and share what you do. We encourage you to come with business cards and a polished "elevator pitch" as you will most definitely want them! 

 

🎉 I'm interested in being a sponsor. What should I do? 

Due to popular demand, we have very limited sponsorship spots available. Please email [email protected] and we can share any remaining sponsorship opportunities with you. 

 

🎉 I already have a business coach/community/networking group. Is MAMACON® right for me?

Heck Ya! Many of our mamas are always working with a coach or mentor and yet they always find value in what we share. This is not about taking away what you're already doing and learning, it's about adding to your vault of experiences and insights. Not to mention, this is a great way to build out your network as you're guaranteed to meet new people. 

 

🎉 How is MAMACON® different from other entrepreneurial events? 

We've been to a lot of entrepreneurial events and they all offer something unique. MAMACON® is specifically designed to support those juggling the growing demands of motherhood and entrepreneurship. Which means no boring men in suits droning on and on about strategies that don't work for busy mamas. You can expect speakers and content that support your unique journey as a mamapreneur. 

 

🎉 How is MAMACON® different from other Mom events? 

MAMACON® is really all about thriving in business and motherhood. All of our speakers, exercises, and activities are geared to those who have their own business or are thinking about starting a business. 

  

🎉 This will be my first time at MAMACON®. What do I need to know?  

Not to worry, we will send you everything you need to make the day a success for you, well in advance of November 7th. From getting to and from the event to what to bring on the day... we cover it all once you've purchased your ticket. 

 

🎉 I'm interested in joining Mamas & Co. Should I attend MAMACON®? 

Yes! We always offer some form of bonus to those attendees who decide to make the leap and join our community while at the conference. If becoming a Mamas & Co. member has been on your radar, this would be the perfect way to kickstart that journey. 

 

🎉 November 7th doesn't work for my schedule? When is the next MAMACON®? 

Unfortunately this event happens only once a year. Our suggestion is to book the day off work, arrange childcare and basically do whatever it takes to be there. We promise, you will not be disappointed. 

 

🎉  Can I bring my child to MAMACON®?

We typically restrict the event to Mamas due to limited capacity. However, we do make a minor exception for babies and carriers. You are welcome to bring your child if they are an infant and can be carried in a carrier or held in your arms.
