Volta Cohort is designed to help early stage, high calibre Atlantic Canadian startups attract and secure venture capital. The program provides mentorship, resources and investments of $25,000 through a microfund co-founded by Volta, BDC Capital, Innovacorp and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.
Every six months, Volta hosts a Cohort Pitch Event to determine who will be accepted into the program, and only those chosen through the application process are eligible.
A maximum of 15 high potential applicants will be invited to pitch their business at the Volta Cohort Event. Up to five companies will be awarded investment funds of $25,000 at each event.
Volta Cohort Pitch Events are structured similarly to a pitch competition, where companies go on stage for three minutes to pitch their business idea. These events are open to the public.
A selection committee is established for each event and will be made up of people from the broader startup ecosystem.
Selection criteria for Cohort Companies will be based on the following:
Applications are open until April 29! Apply to pitch here and guests can register to attend as well.
