Our story

The visionaries, the change makers, the shift disturbers … SHIFT 25 brings them together in a bold summit returning to York Region this spring. Taking place May 15, 2025 at the Silvercity Cineplex Theatre in East Gwillimbury, SHIFT’s mission is simple: to empower and inspire business leaders.

Looking to “shift” the industry’s idea of a conference on its head, SHIFT 25 offers interactive talks on everything from market trends, attraction and retention of talent, strategy, and best practices for reaching customers to drive sales and increase brand awareness.

With plenty of opportunity for networking, this one-day event brings together business leaders from a variety of sectors including tech, manufacturing, hospitality, government, communications and others. Lunch and coffee breaks are included in the event to ensure you leave motivated and energized to grow your business.
