The DEEP Centre is pleased to announce that it is launching a new research project looking at the impact of business incubators and business accelerators across Canada. The project is the result of a partnership with Industry Canada, the Business Development Bank of Canada, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and the Government of Ontario’s Ministry of Economic Development. Other non-funding participants include the Canadian Association of Business Incubators (CABI) .

The project will build a body of evidence around the impact, both quantitative and qualitative, of business incubators and accelerators with an eye towards creating best-practice guidelines and actionable recommendations for stakeholders across the ecosystem.
