Canadian Digital Media Network (CDMN) Hub clients are invited to apply for the CDMN Soft Landing program. Applications will be open from Monday, July 27 until Friday, August 7. The program will provide Canadian small-to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with entry into a new market for up to three months.
Accepted companies benefit from key contact introductions, co-working space and regional support to help open new markets, close international sales or connect with new partners. The program also provides up to $4,000 in travel support, and covers the cost associated with working at a partnered accelerator or co-working space. Travel will occur between September and December 2015.
Launched in 2012, the high demand and success of Outbound Soft Landing has resulted in 186 companies landing in 26 foreign markets. More than $28 million in investment opportunities has been identified and $32 million in new revenue generated as result of the program.
