Canada’s Start-up Visa Program

The Start-up Visa Program is a Canadian Government program that started in 2012 and was created for immigrant entrepreneurs with the skills and potential to build businesses in Canada that are innovative, can create jobs for Canadians, and can compete on a global scale. The program helps those wanting to expand their existing business, start a new business or support innovative entrepreneurs in Canada.  The Start-up Visa Program requires that entrepreneurs work directly with an approved ‘Designated Organization’.  Launch is an approved designated organization and has the ability to support a company’s application with a letter of support (a prerequisite of the program). Launch only recommends companies with a pre-existing relationship to  Launch, through our various programs such as our Maple  Program.  Other than Launch, there are other designated organizations across Canada that can also provide a letter of support.
