Driving positive impact through bold entrepreneurship, powered by Desjardins

​Join us on March 26 for the Cooperathon Info Session and Mixer Event – where entrepreneurs, students and changemakers come together to create solutions that matter.

​This online event kicks off your journey into the Cooperathon Innovation Challenge – a nationwide program from Desjardins that gives innovators the tools, mentorship and resources they need to solve real-world problems. If you’re not able to attend our in person session happening the week after, our online session is a great option for you!

​Connect with other passionate innovators, build your team, and develop ventures for this year’s challenge themes. The best part? The program is open to all and completely free. All participants will get access to expert coaching, training workshops and networking opportunities. Selected teams will even get the chance to pitch for a national competition and earn monetary prizes.
