The Toronto Business Lawyers Association (TBLA) is a group of business lawyers in the Greater Toronto Area who meet regularly for professional development and business referral purposes. If you are a business lawyer and practice in a small or mid-sized law firm, you are welcome to join us for our monthly networking events.

The monthly events provide an opportunity to for lawyers to network for business development purposes and to share experiences. The monthly events often feature speakers in areas of interest to its members such as marketing, privacy, accounting, referral arrangements and other relevant areas as well as updates on legislation of interest to business lawyer.

The TBLA is sponsored by BAX Securities Law and grew out of the desire of Barbara Hendrickson, BAX’s founder and managing partner, to develop a network of lawyers who share her commitment to providing high quality legal services in a small and mid-sized firm structure.

Please join Barbara Hendrickson and Robb Miller for our webinar on “Funding Your Fintech: Navigating the Drought in Canadian Venture Capital.” The webinar is in first as a series of seminars sponsored by BAX Securities Law focusing on Fintechs operating and thriving in the Canadian capital markets.

The Canadian fintech sector is maturing fast, but the funding environment has never been more challenging. As global VC dollars tighten and local investors become more selective, fintech founders are forced to get creative—blending traditional venture capital, alternative financing, and cross-border and international strategies to keep their growth on track.

We will break down the current landscape, highlighting the main players, and offering practical guidance on structuring your raise—including cross-border, tokenization, and crowdfunding considerations.

We will also discuss recent initiatives by securities commissions across Canada to facilitate early stage capital raising as well as changes to TSX and TSXV rules designed to streamline and update the listing process.

Participants will have the opportunity to contribute questions for the panelists online during the webinar.
