  • How it works

    Antler Canada accepts applications from exceptional founders who are seeking a spot in our upcoming residency starting on September 19, 2022.

    Note: We are nearing our cohort start date and applicants who are currently employed will need to give notice to their current employer. ONLY APPLY if you can join the residency starting on September 19th on a full-time basis on that date. Our next cohort will start in February 2023.

    Our work with founders is divided into two phases.

    In phase 1, participants receive a $3,000 stipend and will find their co-founder, build a VC-backable company which they will validate the potential for. The founders will then pitch to our internal Investment Committee for a pre-seed investment of $150,000 for 10% equity.

    In phase 2, the co-founding teams which have received an investment at the end of phase 1 will build an MVP, get their first customers and we will support them as they look to secure external capital through a Demo Day as well as curated direct introductions to relevant angels and investors.
