The Canadian Trade Commissioner Service (TCS), in collaboration with InvestOttawa, are giving Ottawa/Gatineau-based companies a chance to hear from expert advisors about growing your company and seeking US-based venture capital funding. The US-based executives will share their insights on the challenges and opportunities available through U.S. expansion.

In addition, a limited number of companies will be selected for 45-minute private meetings with one of the two experienced CTA advisors. Both advisors support the TCS’s Canadian Tech Accelerators (CTA) which provides high-potential companies with access to coaching, mentors, specialized workshops and events, and introductions to potential partners, clients and investors through market immersion programs in New York, Boston and Silicon Valley. Details about the mentors and how to apply for a 1-on-1 meeting are below.
