Young companies are being sought for ideaBUILD, a 10-month program run by the Dalhousie Emera ideaHUB in Halifax.

IdeaBUILD offers founders a $10,000 grant towards prototyping materials, a 12-week bootcamp, and deep-tech-leading industry advisers who work alongside them to validate and build their product’s first operational prototype, organizers said on LinkedIn.

The deadline to apply is April 6.  The program will run May 2026 through March 2027.

Dalhousie affiliation is not a requirement; all early-stage, deep tech companies are encouraged to apply.
