The most anticipated event, CHFA Launch Pad, is back in Toronto. This “Dragons’ Den” style competition puts 8 selected brands, head-to-head in front of industry vets on the judging panel for a chance to launch their product ahead of the rest. GroundUp eco-ventures was selected as a finalist in the 2022 competition and left the judges and audience laughing & wanting to know more.
