This Creative Lunch Club presented by Black Canadian Creators will be hosted in alignment with BFUTR 2025 at The International Centre. The goal is to gather Black creators, tech professionals, entrepreneurs, and innovators for a mid-day pause filled with storytelling, networking, and idea-sharing — building community in the middle of one of the biggest tech and leadership events in North America.
Please note: You’ll pay for your lunch at the restaurant.
While this Creative Lunch Club is centered on celebrating and connecting Black talent, we also welcome allies who are committed to listening, learning, and actively contributing to more inclusive ecosystems in tech and creative industries. This is a table for collaboration, solidarity, and building the future together.

Creative Lunch Club is a global community that brings creatives together for lunch.
Whether you are a graphic designer, a photographer, an artist, or a filmmaker, the Creative Lunch Club gives you the chance to regularly meet other creatives in your city for lunch.
So lovely and energizing to connect with other designers, bonding over shared experiences, loves/qualms about our work, how to avoid creative burnout, what we’re looking forward to, and so on. Looking forward to continuing to make these thoughtful connections and have meaningful conversations.
I've met so many wonderful people this year trough Creative Lunch Club. It's been a great way to meet people in different industries and has been way more personal and fun than networking events.
I joined CLC a couple of months ago and have met some pretty awesome creative peeps. Every month you get paired a couple creatives from your city to plan a lunch with to talk shop. It’s a great way to expand your network - extremely great value IMO.
