- BSGamesBSGames
BSGames is a collaboration of 2 longtime friends who share a similar passion for gaming but different outlets for their creativity. Scott asked Bill for his graphics expertise to make an educational tool look better, and they realized together that they had the potential to make some really cool stuff. Thus was born the idea of BSGames.
All good games have a learning element to them, but BSGames is adding to their inventory some games specifically designed to help people learn concepts and skills in a fun way. These games would make a great addition to a classroom or to help young people practice what they’ve learned at school while at home. This doesn’t mean that all of our games are only for learning, of course. We are also producing games that anyone would want to invite their friends over for an evening to play.
- ChazleChazle
Elevator Pitch:
Arguably one of the biggest problems facing society today is mental illness. By age 40, there is a 50% chance you will have suffered a mental health-related issue. As a computer science student, I have a strong interest in the applications of machine learning as a tool to progress society in substantial ways. Having known loved ones who have suffered from depression, this is an issue close to my heart. Chazle aims to offer insights and solutions to mental illness by harnessing the power of machine learning (being fed data scraped from social media). To better understand its use-cases, please refer to Dr. Munmun De Choudhury's research at http://www.munmund.net/index.html Our vision is to empower people to prevent mental illness-related tragedies (e.g. mass shootings, self-harm, and avoidable sorrow).

- JavelinJavelin
Everyone remembers playing sports as a kid. Unfortunately, as you grow up, you get busier and busier, all while losing touch with your friends. As a result, 67% of adults will never play sports again. In 2017, Javelin Sports co-founders Justin Ford and Coleman Chan realized that they might end up being a part of this statistic. Together, they co-founded Javelin Sports and launched Javelin July 2018 to help fix this problem. Since then, Justin and Coleman have helped more than 4,000 people play sports around the world.

Who We Are:
Gabrielle Ong - CEO & Lead Developer
Melissa Obioha - VP Operations
Aya Mubarak - VP of Sales & Marketing
Davesh Chauhan - VP Finance & Technology - MindMindAs a current Master’s student of UTM’s Biotechnology program and an aspiring entrepreneur, my team and I are passionate about combating the current state of mental health crisis in Canada. Currently, 1 in 5 Canadians suffer from a form of mental illness, and one in eight consume antidepressants daily. This results in an economic burden of $50 billion annually, with more than 50% of the cost being attributed to increased absenteeism and reduced productivity in the workplace.Mental illnesses can potentially impact all aspects of an individual’s life. Unlike other diseases with established physiological markers, mental health diagnoses are based on the patient’s self-reported symptoms and signs of clinical significance observed by the physician. Due to several overlapping symptoms, mental illnesses can easily be misdiagnosed or missed entirely. With the country confronting a critical shortage of psychiatrists and other mental health specialists concurrently, the issue of missed and/or delayed diagnoses intensifies.Consequently, there is a dire need for a smart solution, and the executive team at Mind AI hopes to develop just that – an Artificial intelligence (AI)-based platform geared towards mental health screening. A smart screening tool, powered by AI, can collect and analyze reams of data at a faster rate than humans, thereby assisting physicians in making intelligent decisions and effectively treating patients to reduce cases of misdiagnosis. By augmenting physician-led diagnosis of patients through digital solutions, there is hope for reversing the decline in our mental wellness.

Elevator Pitch:
The SOCIO app was developed to connect individual service providers with people or companies who need their services. It is a centralized service marketplace platform registered to my company, Märet Corporation. Unlike other narrow platforms, SOCIO is designed to accommodate a wide variety of services. SOCIO benefits service providers by helping them find jobs on their schedule, and can provide a path into the local economy for service providers who have skills, talents, education, and know-how but not a recent or local work history. SOCIO benefits clients who need services by showing profiles and reviews of screened potential providers and making it quick and easy to find the one that fits their schedule and budget. It’s a win-win situation for both. Anyone who wants to supplement their income and has a marketable skill is a potential provider and any individual or company who needs a service is a potential client.
