BHive is a start-up incubator program that provides hands-on support for international entrepreneurs, innovators and founders as they expand their business to North America.

Why bring your business to Brampton?
Over 75,000 businesses, including manufacturing, retail and wholesale trade, call Brampton home. The City of Brampton has a thriving and cultivating ecosystem that entrepreneurs from all over the world are taking an interest in. Close to the City of Toronto and the surrounding Greater Toronto Area, Brampton has a dynamic start-up community and is becoming the launchpad for growing enterprises across a vast number of sectors.
As more start-ups and SMEs are looking to expand their business in Canada every year, entrepreneurs aren’t receiving the support they require to scale and establish themselves in the Canadian marketplace.
As the City of Brampton’s premier start-up incubator, BHive works strategically with international start-up founders and entrepreneurs to ensure they have everything they need to grow, scale and find success.
Through BHive, you and your business will receive immigration support, educational sessions and training, access to highly-qualified mentorship programming and investor funding, and assistance in the Government of Canada’s Start-Up Visa Program.
In working with BHive throughout the Flagship Start-Up Visa incubator program, international entrepreneurs and founders will be provided access to utilize the province’s top resources, investment opportunities and local workspaces to expand their start-ups and join Canada’s growing business landscape.
Our programming includes the opportunity to be onboarded and mentored by your sector’s top insitutions. While attending networking and alumni events, we will get you in the room with the right people to help you make your global scale-up a success.
As a partner of the Toronto Business Development Centre (TBDC), a Designated Start-up Visa Program Organization, BHive can provide a letter of support for your company’s application, a prerequisite of the Canadian government’s program.
At the end of the visa program, applicants will receive Permanent Residence status in Canada and the tools they need to launch their start-up.
