Industry groups in Toronto

Toronto is the centre of Canada's executive-network market: TEC Canada, now owned by Vistage, and MacKay CEO Forums, which publishes its full dues schedule, run peer groups here; TIGER 21 and Hampton have Toronto groups; EO and WPO run chapters; and the Real Estate Investment Network and the professional leadership bodies are active. The traditional clubs downtown carry business memberships, and the family-office and family-business networks reflect a large population of privately held companies.
