Vision Program (e-Accelerator Entry)
Vision Program (e-Accelerator Entry) is a program offered by Propel for entrepreneurs and small businesses in Atlantic Canada (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador).
The Vision Program is the entry point to Propel's e-Accelerator. It is a short, focused experience designed to understand the founder's business idea, goals, and entrepreneurial stage. Founders may join a supportive cohort or an accelerated self-paced version depending on their stage. At the end, Propel works with each founder to determine the best path forward.

Program details
The Vision Program begins with a single application and serves as the first step in the Propel journey. Once accepted, founders are invited to participate in the program which helps Propel's team understand their business idea, goals, and current stage. Early-stage founders may join a supportive cohort to build their network alongside fellow founders, while more advanced founders may be suited for an accelerated, self-paced version. The program equips the Propel team with insights needed to help unlock the right resources, coaching, and milestones for each venture. The program focuses on validating whether there is a problem in the market people are willing to pay to solve, using lean startup methodology and customer discovery techniques.
Who qualifies
Must be based in Atlantic Canada and have a technology component in the business idea. Solo founders and founding teams are both accepted. Part-time and full-time founders are eligible.
