Blueprint officially launched in 2021 with 100 BIPOC entrepreneurs selected to take part in a comprehensive mentorship program designed to provide the tools, resources and community to help them thrive – plus, participants received a $10,000 CAD grant to help take their business to the next level.
Like so many, the pandemic pushed us to focus on a digital online solution. We could no longer rely on revenue from in-person events. Thanks to the generous grant provided by the Blueprint program, we were able to hire talented student developers, and are now set to launch the first version of our new digital product this season."

Founder of LIOHAN
The most valuable aspect of this program is access to mentors. Being able to speak to other founders who have had the same struggles has been a great source of encouragement, experience, and knowledge."

of Unleash Forward
My main takeaway from the Blueprint program was the ability to network within the startup community and see how we can best collaborate and help one another achieve our goals. The program was very impactful. The mentors and guidance we accessed provided us with many opportunities."
