Quebec Entrepreneur Program

The Quebec Entrepreneur Program is intended for experienced entrepreneurs who want to develop or purchase a business in Quebec. Successful applicants have the ability to live in Quebec as Canadian permanent residents while earning a living for themselves and their families. There are two different streams that applicants can take to participate in the Quebec Entrepreneur Program. Stream 1 and stream 2 requires applicants to settle in Québec to create and operate a business for which you have already received a service offer from a business accelerator or incubator or a university entrepreneurship center.

You can carry out your project alone or with others, up to a maximum of three other foreign nationals who have submitted applications for permanent selection as entrepreneurs for the same project. You must present your business project in the form of a business plan, as well as a service offer. You must obtain, by the prescribed deadline, an attestation of learning about democratic values and the Québec values. The members of your family accompanying you (your spouse of 16 years of age or older and your dependent children of 18 years of age or older) must also obtain the attestation.
