For founders applying through the Start-Up Visa Program, securing a letter of support from a designated organization is a core requirement. Angel investor groups are authorized to provide this support, provided the applicant secures a minimum investment commitment of CAD 75,000.
Engaging with a designated angel group not only fulfills a key immigration criterion but also connects entrepreneurs with experienced investors who offer operational support, business connections, and follow-on funding opportunities.
