North Forge Technology Exchange in Manitoba launched the Global Entrepreneurship Initiative, a program offering 24 on-demand webinars and resources to support innovative women entrepreneurs in tech, advanced manufacturing, or STEM who want to start a business in Canada, with waived fees for the first 100 webinar applicants and free monthly virtual roundtables.

As the world continues to evolve and embrace technology, entrepreneurship is a vital part of the global economy. North Forge Technology Exchange, a Canadian business incubator accelerator located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is taking significant steps to support and educate global entrepreneurs with their new program called the Global Entrepreneurship Initiative.

The Global Entrepreneurship Initiative is a remarkable program consisting of 24 on-demand webinars and extensive resources accessible through a portal, designed to support and educate innovative entrepreneurs who wish to start a business in Canada. While the program is open to everyone, the primary focus is on women entrepreneurs in tech, advanced manufacturing or STEM. North Forge is committed to providing a safe and culturally inclusive environment for women!

North Forge is a designated incubator by the IRCC for the Start-up Visa Program that will ensure that qualified applicants have access to strong programming and support, along with a robust network in Canada.

As a leading organization in Canada’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, North Forge is inviting participants in Canada and globally to join their international program. This is a tremendous opportunity for entrepreneurs who have just moved to Canada, are looking to move their business or establish a new business in Canada.

At North Forge, they understand the importance of supporting and empowering entrepreneurs. The fees have been waived for the first 100 applicants for the webinars! There will also be free virtual roundtables offered monthly.
