The Start-Up Visa Program is a Federal government-led initiative that offers the opportunity for early-stage companies and their management to relocate to Canada to support their North American plans.

​

Keiretsu Forum Canada is a designated organization for the program to provide Letters of support for qualifying companies. Its members have supported and funded over 100 new-to-Canada companies with high growth potential, making it one of the Start-Up Visa Program's most active Angel Investor organizations!

 

Canada's FIRST Start-Up Visa Summit, co-sponsored by Keiretsu Forum Canada, KPMG, and RBC, will showcase selected international start-ups seeking to expand into the North American market to Angel Investors, industry partners, government stakeholders, and economic development representatives.

​

It will also highlight some of the innovative companies that are already operating in Canada from industries such as Cyber Security, Information Technology, Medical Software, Fintech and Consumer Goods.
