11th International Public Markets Conference
11th International Public Markets Conference
In June 2023, Toronto hosted the 11th International Public Markets Conference, where the City of Toronto announced an official Public Markets Week. Hosted by Project for Public Spaces, in partnership with St. Lawrence Market, the City of Toronto Economic Development Food Cluster Division, and marketcityTO.
Public Markets Featured: 40
Local Partners engaged: 55
The event drew 376 global leaders, including market managers, government, academia, civic society and the private sector from 130 cities and 23 countries. It was an incredible event and a milestone in our journey to become a Market City!
The conference allowed Toronto market leaders to collaborate, share ideas, and learn from a global network of peers. It showcased Toronto’s grassroots approach to building a Market City and, most importantly, spurred much-needed action in our city.
