Our Startup services are geared toward innovative and scalable businesses that are less than 5 years old and have under $1 million in revenue to date. The business can be a new corporation under a parent organization, and there is no limit to the number of employees. Startups include Brock University and Niagara College student entrepreneurs enrolled in Kick-Starting Entrepreneurship and ncTakeOff programs.

Qualifying startups will move through our intake process, and are most often seeking market intelligence services and entrepreneurial skills training. Startup clients have access to Executive-in-Residence mentorship where appropriate, as well as networking and other business development opportunities.

This is a competitive annual opportunity available to a limited number of high-growth, high-potential companies that have been in business for 5 or more years, have at least 5 employees, and a minimum of $500,000 in annual revenue.

Established Business services are project-specific, and aim to help companies reach identifiable goals such as: revenue growth via new clients or markets, finding new market applications for technologies, export development, adjacent market expansion and market channel development, creating new job positions and employee retention strategies, product development such as new IP, cost reductions through supply chain optimization and/or productivity efficiencies, securing funds for product or process improvements, securing investors, negotiating licensing opportunities, and refining business strategies.
