About Facilitate

This is where we come from.

Born in Toronto's innovation ecosystem, built inside the institutions we now serve — and carried by the communities we grew up in.

Our story

Built inside the institutions we serve

Facilitate didn't arrive from outside the ecosystem — it grew up within it.

University of Toronto Entrepreneurship

Accelerated onto the market through ICUBE, one of the campus-linked accelerators in the University of Toronto Entrepreneurship network.

Osgoode Hall Law School

Intellectual-property foundation built with the IP Innovation Clinic at Osgoode Hall Law School, York University.

MaRS Discovery District

Supported by MaRS, North America's largest urban innovation hub.

The founders

Built by people who know the gap first-hand

Kay Boamah and Paul Boamah built Facilitate from the journey they lived — young builders from the communities the platform now serves, walking the same path from first idea to first income.

The mission

Opportunity starts young. Value stays local.

Facilitate connects a community's own talent, founders, employers, and institutions — a guide for every young person crossing from potential to income, and an engine for the community that keeps what they build.

The story is still being written.

Every community we enter adds a chapter — yours could be next.
