Programs

Find the Right Support

At Manitoba Innovates, our programs are designed to make progress easier for the people doing the work, whether you are just getting started, building momentum, or scaling what already works. We offer support that’s practical, founder-informed, and always focused on removing friction, not adding it.

Our programs serve three core groups: international founders looking to land and launch in Canada, Manitoba-based startups and scaleups growing their companies, and the partners, investors, and institutions who power the broader ecosystem. No matter where you fit, there’s a way to connect.

For Ecosystem Partners

We work with service providers, industry leaders, funders, and post-secondary institutions who want to build a stronger innovation ecosystem.

Partnerships with Manitoba Innovates include visibility opportunities, talent connections, access to events, and curated engagement with high-potential startups.

For Manitoba Founders and Scaleups

No matter your stage, from early testing to team growth, we have built support that adapts with you.

From flexible workspace at our offices, to our Manitoba Invests funding program, to mentorship and events, you’ll find support that adapts to your stage, not the other way around.

VentureMap Manitoba

VentureMap Manitoba is a live, interactive platform where you can explore key metrics from across our startup and scaleup ecosystem. From company growth to funding trends, it offers a real-time window into innovation in the province.

For International Founders

Building a company in a new country comes with challenges, but you don’t have to do it alone.

We support international founders who want to grow in Manitoba with tailored programming, mentorship, funding pathways, and help making local connections. Whether you are exploring market entry, relocation, or just looking for a place to scale, we can help.
