Getting to know more about startup program terms
Letter of Support
The first step in any start-up project is to prove the efficiency, novelty and compatibility of the idea and project with the Canadian market and the global economy. For this purpose, the initial plan and project must be reviewed and approved by the institutions approved by the Canadian Immigration Department. If these institutions are approved, a Letter of Support will be issued. In fact, the responsibility and focus of these institutions is to support that project in the form of specified services. In this case, the Canadian Immigration Department will accept project team members based on this article.
Key members and non-key members
In general, in every startup team, members are divided into two categories: essential members and non-essential members. In simple words, key members play the main role in the startup project and their presence in the project is undeniable and necessary. But this does not mean that they have a greater stake in this project in terms of rights and partnership.
Non-key members are people without their presence in the process and development of the project, and their presence in the early stages of the project is unnecessary.
Incubators – Incubators
These organizations are known as business accelerators in Farsi. These organizations do not invest in start-up projects. Their main role is to provide the necessary information and training regarding the start and prosperity of the business, for which they usually receive a fee. The main actions of incubators are communication with investors in Canada, training, consulting and generally “mentoring”.
Angel Investors – Angel Investors
These organizations are actually personal investors who invest their personal capital in the start-up project and in return will share a percentage of the company’s profits. They do not have any main role in the management of the company and only share in the profits.
Venture Capitals – Venture Capitals
These institutions are not looking for initial plans and ideas, but they invest in plans and ideas that have passed the initial stages of business growth and have reached the stage of initial sales and profitability. In this case, they will definitely invest more in the project.
