"This isn't just a rebranding. It's a reimagining. What was previously part of our broader Global Program series has now evolved into its own dedicated competition with higher stakes, exciting cash prizes, and a clear national narrative. We want founders to feel the weight and excitement of competing on a truly national stage, and this new format delivers exactly that."
"The Startup Global National Pitch Competition features four pitch competitions in total: three live events at our Startup Canada Tour stops across the country, plus one Virtual Pitch Competition, making the opportunity accessible to founders no matter where they're located. Each competition will crown one finalist, meaning four founders in total will earn their spot at the Grand Finale in Mississauga."
"The prizing reflects the magnitude of this competition. Each of the four finalists will receive $8,500 just for making it to the Grand Finale, because earning your spot on that stage deserves to be rewarded. And at every stop along the way, a People's Choice Award of $1,000 goes to the crowd favourite, because great energy deserves recognition too."
