The Start-up Visa Program (SUV) in Canada allows immigrant entrepreneurs to apply for permanent residence by launching their startups in the country. To qualify, entrepreneurs must secure support from designated organizations. Let’s explore these organizations:

1.Venture Capital Funds: These organizations agree to invest a minimum of $200,000 in eligible startups. 2.Angel Investor Groups: Immigrant entrepreneurs need at least one investor connected to these groups to invest a minimum of $75,000 in their startups.

4.Assessment Process: Each designated organization has its own intake process and criteria for assessing business proposals.
