The J. Herbert Smith Centre at the University of New Brunswick is accepting applications from students for H2A Canada, a program supporting ventures focused on social and environmental challenges.

The program is open to students from any faculty, program or academic background. It is delivered by the J. Herbert Smith Centre in partnership with Harvard University’s HealthLab Accelerator.

Participants will receive workshops, mentorship and access to resources to help develop their ideas and prepare for launching a venture.

The program will select a cohort of student entrepreneurs for the 2026-27 cycle. Participants will also have an opportunity to travel to Boston in April 2027 for a final pitch event at Harvard University, where they will join participants from Harvard’s cohort.

The program is aimed at students with ideas intended to create social impact, whether through a new venture, product or other approach to addressing challenges affecting people or the environment.
