Propel ICT, the regional ICT accelerator, is kicking off the new year with a series of information sessions about its next cohort, which will take place this winter.

Applications for the coming cohort, which can be found here, close Jan. 31. As it has done in the past, Propel will offer its Build Program for more advanced companies across the region, usually meeting in Moncton. And it plans to offer the Launch program, which is designed for younger companies, in Halifax, Fredericton, Charlottetown, Sydney and St. John’s.

Propel hopes to offer a cohort in Sydney for the first time as long as there are enough eligible candidates for the cohort.  The ideal number in a cohort is six to nine companies.

The information sessions will take place in several centres, and there are even virtual sessions for people not located in the cities where the sessions are held.
