There are many Canadian government funding programs available for small-to-medium enterprises. However, many companies fail to account for the overhead and compliance costs that are involved with these programs. There is a common misconception that your job is complete once you have applied for a government funding program, when in fact, the application is only half of the total deliverables that you will need to send to the government.
Government agencies often conduct due diligence on a funding application before the approval stage, which requires additional disclosures of financial, technical, and business details. Secondly, after the agreement is reached, government agencies require regular progress updates and remittance forms, before releasing the funding in installments. Finally, government agencies will often audit (1) your financial reconciliations, and (2) your compliance with other programs to ensure that overlap rules are not breached. If you are a small-to-medium enterprise who is interested in securing government funding programs, this webinar will help you to understand the types of government funding programs available, as well as the full scope of the government funding process.
