Halifax startup hub Volta is looking for applicants to the fall edition of its Investment Day event, which it hosts in collaboration with accelerator Creative Destruction Lab Atlantic.

The event will be held at Volta’s new offices in downtown Halifax’s Armoyan Centre on November 12 and will give 12 seed-stage and Series A companies the chance to pitch to an audience of venture capitalists from outside Atlantic Canada.

Companies will deliver five- to seven-minute pitches, then decamp for one-on-one sessions with investors. To be eligible, startups must be headquartered in Atlantic Canada and be able to show traction, such as evidence of having validated their business models, as well as early adopter users or even paying customers. Applicants must also provide financial projections.

"Volta Investment Day epitomizes our commitment to supporting founders to access crucial capital and connecting investors with high-potential startups. We aim to showcase the incredible innovation happening within our region to investors both near and far," said Volta CEO Matt Cooper in a previous statement. "This exclusive event, now to be held semi-annually, serves as a beacon for Atlantic Canada's burgeoning entrepreneurial ecosystem."

You can learn more and apply here, though the deadline is September 11. You can also take a look at the companies that presented at the spring edition of Investment Day here.
