Erin Warner

As the Acceleration Consortium's director of marketing and communications, Erin is dedicated to making ideas and information easily accessible to a wide audience. Erin spent over a decade working in the arts and cultural sector in Toronto, including at the Harbourfront Centre’s Toronto International Festival of Authors, Canada’s largest literary program, and then at the Image Centre (IMC), Toronto Metropolitan University's (TMU) art gallery and research centre. While at the IMC, she completed an MBA in technology and innovation part-time at TMU's Ted Rogers School of Management, which led her to a role at the Brookfield Institute for Innovation + Entrepreneurship (renamed the Dais), and now to the world of science and commercialization at the Consortium. Erin is convinced that a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach is key to solving some of the world’s biggest problems.
