Fashion Zone x GRANTED: Grant Writing 101 For Creatives (& Complimentary GRANTED Platform Demo)
Securing funding as a fashion, retail, or creative tech startup can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Most grant databases are built for deep-tech or SaaS, leaving creative founders spending hundreds of hours hunting for the right opportunities and writing tedious applications instead of designing their next collection.
It doesn’t have to be that hard.
Join us for an exclusive, tactical workshop hosted by Justina Kanza, CEO of GRANTED (and former U of T Entrepreneurship Program Coordinator). We are pulling back the curtain on the Canadian grant landscape specifically for creative industries.
During this session, we will introduce you to GRANTED, your new AI-powered grant writing co-pilot. We will show you how to use AI to find hidden funding for sustainable materials, retail innovation, and export growth, and how to automate 80% of your application drafting in minutes.
What to Expect (Agenda):
Grant Writing 101 for Creatives: The do's and don'ts of positioning a fashion/retail startup for government and private funding.
The GRANTED Platform Demo: Watch us use specialized AI to match, draft, and manage a grant application in real-time.
