BRAMPTON — Altitude Accelerator has partnered with Scan Consulting Group to help member companies strengthen operations and take their products to market.

Altitude Accelerator and Scan Consulting Group will launch their partnership with a live one-hour webinar titled, “How to Fund Your Startup,” on Apr. 14 from 2:00pm to 3:00pm ET.

Wahaj Ahmed, co-founder and principal partner, and Saad Khan, partner, business advisory services, will discuss their recommendations on how to decide between different types of funding sources and how to make the most out of federal budget 2022.

Altitude Accelerator’s executive director Pam Banks said this is an exciting time for innovation in Canada. The company’s statement referenced the government’s funding towards the cleantech space of $2.6 billion to assist carbon-capture infrastructure, utilization, and storage (CCUS) tax credit, $2.2 billion for the Low Carbon Economy Fund, and $780 million to expand the Nature Smart Climate Solutions Fund.

Since 2008, Altitude Accelerator has reportedly helped 84 cleantech companies raise over $60 million.

“Our mission is to empower businesses by providing them with strategic advice to make them financially sound and strong,” said Scan Consulting Group founder Wahaj Ahmed in a statement.

“We connect them with the right resources and provide continual guidance along the way. Now that Budget 2022 has been released I am excited to leverage the new opportunities for our tech startup leaders.”
