Brazil-Canada Talks: How to Move Your Company to Canada

The Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce is pleased to present the webinar Brazil-Canada Talks: How to move your Startup to Canada.

We invited Raquel Boechat, Serial Entrepreneur, Co-Founder at Athimos Healthcare Platform and Co-Founder at Think Global Bootcamp, Miryam Lazarte, CEO at Latam Startups, Sonia Mirhaba, Partner at SMB Business Immigration and Josh Schachnow, Partner at SMB Business Immigration and CEO & Co-Founder at Visto.AI to share their experiences and answer questions from Brazilian entrepreneurs looking to move their companies to Canada.

For over a decade Canada has been investing in developing a strong startup ecosystem in all its major cities and it has been getting a lot of international attention. Its diverse, highly educated and growing tech talent pool continuously attracts investments from business around the globe – and Canada’s commitment to talent development and attraction, strong support for innovation and low business costs make it easier for tech companies to make money.

More and more Latin American companies are using Canada as a launchpad to scale their business globally. And the reason for that is the strong and dynamic technology ecosystem that Canada has been building for over a decade – based on three key assets: educated people, access to smart capital (money and networks) and government support.

Greater numbers of graduates from top computer science and engineering programs are choosing to stay in Canada because of the great fiscal environment for researchers and new businesses, not to mention the amazing quality of life and stable political systems that understand technological innovation as an economic engine. And as the government continues to invest in the sector’s rapid growth, more structures and organizations are being created to inspire founders and support them along the way.
