AC Investor Month

Pitch to our exclusive investor network

It’s no secret, raising funds for your startup is never easy. As you know, AC founders have unparalleled access to investors and investor readiness education. But in today’s market, there are extra challenges.

To ensure you have the opportunity to get ahead and get your startup in front of some of the country's top investors, we’re pulling out all the stops and launching AC Investor Month.

AC Investor Month is an exclusive opportunity for pre-seed to series A startups to tap into our investor network through 5 curated, sector-specific showcase events with top investors from our network.

How it Works

Over the month, we will host 5 showcase events where up to 8 startups from each category will have the opportunity to pitch to one or more of Canada’s top investors. Before the event, you’ll have the chance to meet with pitch coaches in our in-house investment support team to perfect your pitch and prepare for questions from investors. Following the showcase, if an investor is interested in learning more about your startups, we’ll make the connection - helping you connect to opportunities, build early relationships, and start securing investment.

Members of AC:Incubate, AC:Cowork, AC:Studio, and AC alumni are eligible to apply for a spot to pitch. Final selections will be made by AC programs and investment staff.

All companies will have the chance to pitch for 5 minutes to our investor network in a group format.

Please note: All AC Investor Month events will be fully virtual. Each company can only pitch at one event so please choose the event that is most closely aligned with your company.

Selected companies will be notified of their acceptance one week prior to the pitch date.
