2021 onwards will be the rise of the food innovation economy.

As global demand increases due to the growing population, access to healthy and affordable choices and the need for more locally sourced options promoting freshness, health, and the planet's overall wellbeing, are key to increasing food security.

At Spring Activator, we'll be running a virtual food innovation-themed IMPACT Startup Visa Accelerator Program, specifically supporting immigrant entrepreneurs in the F&B industry looking to move and scale their businesses to Canada and access the North American market.

Through the IMPACT Startup Visa Program, entrepreneurs get their application to Canadian Permanent Residency supported by us as per one of the eligibility requirements of the Canada Startup Visa immigration pathway.
