Announcements

The Imagiin Summit announces Juno award winning singer, songwriter, host and founder Keshia Chante for a 2026 fireside chat.

For more than 20 years, Keshia has built a career across music, television, entrepreneurship, beauty, and storytelling, continuing to evolve while creating space for representation along the way.

From becoming the youngest JUNO Award winner to hosting, interviewing some of the world's biggest names, and building her own company and inclusive haircare brand, Keshia embodies so much of what we value at Imagiin: creative confidence, longevity, innovation, and building a career that can evolve with you.

Reach

We bring together 600+ emerging creatives, youth and leaders, alongside 40+ Canadian organizations, brands, and companies to participate in a day dedicated to increasing creative, mental, and economic sustainability. We've used an invite-only model to ensure our audience is curated by partners, sponsors, and attendees who deserve to be in the room but experience barriers to access. We combine professional skills development with nervous system regulation, financial literacy, and leadership education, alongside Imagiin Talks — sessions led by global innovators, thought leaders, and Grammy- and Juno-winning artists, shaping what sustainable success looks like for the next generation.

Our mission is to remove barriers to professional development and wellness access. A portion of every sponsorship and corporate ticket directly funds "Imagiin Subsidies", covering attendance for an emerging artist or industry leader with high potential but real financial and networking barriers to getting in the room.
