MaRS Discovery District Review

A great communal space for innovation - the MaRS start program helps small businesses with tools, resources, and advice. Great part of Toronto's tech business community!

Very clean inside nice food court Tim Hortons on level 2 Starbucks on ground level out front. Security staff is great for helping with directions cleaning staff excellent. This building even have the installation of charging stations for electric vehicle (EV) 1 super charger level 3 on P1 and 2 level 2 GE WattStations with two more also on P2 level the last time I was there. (Up and running now)

Really nice building with lots of startup companies. Food court is really good too!

This place has a wonderful atmosphere, it s quiet, calm, and has very nice views of green space. It s a good study spot and they have a tea dispensing machine (customizable tea thats hot and it s $3).

Great place for startup companies to collaborate and grow.

They bring in great speakers and so much more for anyone interested in their professional and business development

Amazing place to work or visit. Lots happening and lots of positive energy.

MaRS is a fantastic incubator of leading edge ideas. They host great events there. The facility is well connected to public transit, and it was nice to find ample bicycle parking out front. I've never eaten there, but there is a selection of eateries in the lower level. On top of all of that, aesthetically, the building is a great example of new build integrated into more historic architecture.

Hi-Tech facility, was here the other day for a small conference.

Beautiful part of the city as well!

Beautiful district, great people to run into, fantastic place for events.

One of the most beautiful places of Toronto. Just visit and have a coffee while observing young professionals working.

Gorgeous building. I had such an incredible experience there during the ScaleUpTO2018 event.

Great opportunity for funding new businesses and research.

Great supporter of start up companies. Great support network, good conference facilities, great for networking.

A historic building attached to a modern architectural design

Recently attended Fundica, absolutely a great experience.

The original site of the Toronto General Hospital! The building has been beautifully preserved and renovated and combined with 3 other new towers to form an amazing complex. The indoor courtyard has a glass roof and walls which means its wonderfully lit during the day. Definitely worth a walk through if you're in the area. MaRS is connected to the Queens Park subway and Toronto General Hospital as well. It houses different medical, research and IT companies like OICR, Etsy and Airbnb. There are also lots of incentives for start up businesses.

Good place to hold an event.. had options for Meals for the delegates..

Great place! Amazing start-ups! Truly building creativity and guiding future leaders!

Considering hoe popular this location is with startups, i never seem tonhavr an issue getting a table in the communal space.

Nice building with a lot of research inside. It also has direct access to Toronto general hospital. I use the underground parking lot if I am visiting the hospital next to Mars

MarS is a great initiative ... Ontario to shine in science and innovation with the contribution of MarS

MaRS Discovery District is the quintessential example of the public and private sectors coming together to make a difference.

Perfect place to hold conferences in downtown Toronto

Visited Startup Fair that took place there a few days ago. The place is clean and bright, there is also a food court and enough places to seat around.

great space for a hackathon and other events. the building looks nice and is overall very neat.

Nice workspace, friendly staff and appropriate security.

Love this place it was set up so nice with lots of Christmas decorations

Beautiful building and the place oozes with energy and innovation. One of my favourite places to work out of.

Lovely space. Plenty of study areas. Very convenient n tons of interesting companies. Great neighbourhood

Great architecture. Love the meshing of the old with new. The food court and parking downstairs is great. Starbucks cafe for the 'discerning' crowd as well. Looks like an excellent place to work.

[Free WiFi,stable]
This place is really brand new, it is extremely quiet and comfortable. It is like a little garden isolated from the city. I like to study in common area with a cup of fresh tea from tea not. Also, the wife here is stable and fast enough for me to do anything, the most important thing is the WiFi is for free.

Probably the coolest venue in the city for hackathons and meetups. The auditorium is huge and has great wifi, onsite tech support, massive built in screens, and an adjacent food court.
The office space they rent here is not quite so good. Outside of the medical buildings, the crowd that Mars attracts is very MBA heavy. Not a whole lot of actual work getting done, so don't expect to be "surrounded by innovators" as Mars tends to advertise.

Beautiful MaRS building and really nice to see and chill.. loved it

Nice modern building where a lot of events occur such as Etsy market, intellectual talks by prominent scientists, researchers alike and directly connected to Queens Park station (there's an escalator down to TTC). Wide open area with some tables outside the Starbucks in the building, which you may work or meet up with people. Also the location of the AirBnB headquarters.

A crown jewel of the Ontario and Canadian Innovation community. I offer my time as an adviser for health and tech focused companies.

What a great energy has this place! It is inspiring to be around, a place that invites you to dream big because everything is possible.

Great architecture, they have a food court, laundry services and several rooms that fit great for conferences and events.

MaRS does the right thing when it counts.

Even when it's not easy or convenient, they help Canadian startups with every tool and resource available to them.

They vote with their dollars and support their ecosystem with every tool and resource at their disposal. There is no length they won't go to in order to help Canadian entrepreneurs succeed. They are a powerful ally for any Canadian tech company.

That's what I believe they have done in the past and what I hope they will continue to do in the future. That's the reputation I want to give them and the reputation I believe they can live up to for many years to come.

Tech hub and inspiring place for tech savvy people. Great renovation and lots of food options. Easy access to transit and bike services.

Very cool, a nice walk through there is perfect for an afternoon.

Very cool place to visit if someone is taking you up to a lab

I love this space. Very modern feeling. Had a few events here and they are all run very well.

Somebody told ME to go and visit MaRS from the Textile Museum because they said that MaRS has a Window Exhibition on the History of Insulin since it was primarily invented by a Canadian named Charles H. Best which was also the name of one (1) of my former public schools.

I really enjoyed seeing this Insulin Exhibition and You will too!

I want to personally Thank the staff at MaRS for putting on a Very Nice Insulin Historical Display that I saw back on Friday, February 9, 2018.

Sincerely yours,
