Question 1

What are the registration deadlines for your programs?

Accepted Answer

There is no registration deadline. You can enroll at any moment throughout the year and our team will onboard you from that point on. The Sprint workshop takes place regularly on specific dates, but registration is always open.

Question 2

What types of businesses can enroll in your programs?

Accepted Answer

Startup coaching: We welcome startups from all industries as long as they are involved in technological innovation. For example, you could be a startup in the agri-food sector developing a new type of order management platform with features unseen so far in the industry. That would be technological innovation.

Growth services: Established businesses or organizations do not need to be in technological innovation to access our growth services (digital transformation, industry 4.0 audit, etc.). The services themselves all involve technology and innovation.

Question 3

Does my business need to be in the Outaouais region, in Quebec or in Canada to access your services?

Accepted Answer

Our programs are available to businesses from all over. Applicants must still fulfill the requirements of our selection process which is based on technological innovation, team strength, and growth potential. Note that a company without an office in Quebec will not have access to some of the financial leverage offered by our partners.(https://www.axeo.ca/en/financement)
