Summer Company Program Intake Launch!

April 15, 2025

The Summer Company program provides students between the ages of 15 and 29 with at least 12 hours of business training, one‐on‐one mentoring and grants up to $3,000 to start a full-time business.

Applications are now officially open, and we would like to encourage students between the ages of 15-29 to apply. The deadline for applications is on May 16^th, 2025.

Over the past five years, the program, delivered through Small Business Enterprise Centres, has helped launch over 1,700 businesses across Ontario.

Our government provided an additional investment of $1.5 million last year, helping an additional 250 young people start and grow a business. The investment increased total funding for the program to more than $4.7 million over two years.

This exciting program expands the pipeline of entrepreneurs by providing more students with the training and supports they need to launch and run their own summer business. It’s good for our young people and fantastic for Ontario’s future economy.
