The Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) is a Government of Canada program that helps Canadian businesses succeed in international markets. With a network of trade commissioners posted in over 160 cities worldwide, the TCS connects Canadian companies with local expertise, business contacts, and market intelligence to support export growth, foreign investment, and global innovation partnerships.
The Canadian Technology Accelerator (CTA) helps high-potential Canadian tech startups and scaleups break into key international markets. Through a cohort-based model, the CTA embeds Canadian companies into leading global tech hubs — such as Silicon Valley, New York, London, and Mexico City — providing them with mentorship, workspace, networking opportunities, and direct access to investors, customers, and partners. The program is designed to accelerate market entry and help Canadian innovators compete and grow on the world stage.
