About Us
Pier Five is Canada's leading community platform for creative entrepreneurs and small business owners. Through custom content, bespoke events and funding programs, we've connected thousands of businesses and aspiring founders with the resources and relationships to turn their passions into their career.
Pier Five is a platform meant to inspire.​
Born from a need for connection, Pier Five launched in 2020 as an interview platform during the pandemic, spotlighting creative thought leaders and sharing real-world insights to help the next generation turn creative passions into sustainable careers.
Pier Five is a platform built to connect
Today, Pier Five connects one of the largest communities of creatives, entrepreneurs, and small business owners in Canada and beyond. By combining insightful content, non-dilutive funding, and unforgettable experiences, we’re helping people build careers on their own terms and proving there’s no single path to success.
We are always learning, together. ​​
Every conversation we have shapes how Pier Five grows. We’re constantly learning, listening, and exploring new ways to better support our community of creative entrepreneurs.
