A world of immigrants

In the last few years, Canada welcomed 300,000 new residents each year. And in the coming years, the plan is to upscale to 400,000 each year. Canada recognizes the need for immigrants, and the fact that this country is made of a melting pot of people from diverse origins

Startup ecosystem

Canada welcomes a huge startup ecosystem: a world-renowned AI cluster, specialized incubators, public support, a wide range of investors and easy access to the North America market.

Low cost of living

It costs less, on average, to operate a business in Canada than in the United States, without even counting the very attractive incentives that are available.
