Thanks to this joint mdf commerce and AQT initiative, 10 companies of less than five years of activity will get access to a large, well-established network of professionals in their sector, thus maximizing their visibility with their peers and potential partners, in addition to obtaining recognition for their contribution to the economic recovery.

The jury will be made up of AQT members holding senior management positions in their companies. In addition to evaluating applications focused on projects promoting economic recovery, the members of the jury will consider companies demonstrating inclusion and diversity among their teams, a value dear to mdf commerce and the AQT.

“In the exceptional economic context in which we have been immersed for over a year, we have observed significant changes, especially in the technology sector,” said Luc Filiatreault, President and CEO of mdf commerce. “The digital transformation of companies has accelerated at all levels and has generated unprecedented creativity and resilience in the industry: it is this extraordinary ingenuity and this desire to contribute positively to a better post-pandemic world that mdf commerce wishes to highlight via the Grants-for-Start-ups initiative.”

“We are very proud to be able to launch this call for applications and honored that mdf commerce has accepted to launch this movement which aims to promote our local businesses in the techno-digital sector,” added Nicole Martel, President and Director General of the AQT. “We are fully aware that Quebec entrepreneurs have no shortage of ideas and ambition to overcome the economic challenges that await us; we look forward to introducing them to our network and supporting them in their development over the next two years.”
