Start-Up Visa Advisory Focus in 2021

In 2021, CBGA intensified its focus on Canada’s Start-Up Visa program, positioning innovation-driven immigration as a core direction of its advisory practice.

Operating within an environment shaped by travel restrictions, remote processing, and evolving administrative procedures, the firm concentrated on structured project positioning for Start-Up Visa applicants. Particular attention was given to aligning business models with designated organization expectations, capital structuring considerations, and documentation precision under federal requirements.

Throughout the year, CBGA supported entrepreneur teams in developing commercially viable concepts suitable for innovation pathways, emphasizing founder involvement, operational feasibility, and long-term execution planning.

The year marked an important step in consolidating the firm’s expertise in innovation-driven immigration mechanisms, laying the groundwork for the formalization and expansion of the Start-Up Visa advisory framework in 2022.

CBGA continues to support entrepreneurs pursuing innovation-based immigration pathways through structured and compliance-oriented advisory methodologies.
