we do great things. Amazing things.
our story
The time was December 2019.
Right here at a restaurant in Toronto, two long-time friends got together for a catch-up over dinner. As always, a conversation about technology, entrepreneurship, intertwined with personal laughter. The recurring theme of that evening – how lucky they both felt to have worked with so many brilliant minds in their paths, individuals who had a profound impact on critical business or technology initiatives.
The two friends wondered.
What if they could build a new home for the best and brightest to tackle the most complex problems, do great things, and do amazing things?
A few months later, GoodLabs was born.
