SUCCESS STORIES

“There's a rapidly growing interest in curling, so it was perfect time to think about our export plan.”

“The TAP program forced us to really look at resources within our network, a new network that TAP brought us - services that we weren’t aware of.”

“We graduated from TAP with a much more holistic understanding of the resources available to us as a Canadian small business.”

Andrew Brett, Director of Customer Relations, Goldline Curling

“When we entered TAP, we were pre-revenue. Within the next 18 months, we had grown into 10 different countries, across 4 different continents. TAP sessions weren’t just lectures; there were contacts and even notes that I use even today. We've been able to grow our presence and prove ourselves as an innovative force in the music industry."

James Hashimi, Co-Founder/Owner, Viryl Technologies

“The Trade Accelerator program helped us to put pen to paper on our export plan. I came out of there with a more enriched understanding of different kinds of government resources. I made great contacts as well which allowed us to grow our business on an international basis.”

David Dickson, VP of Finance, Signifi Solutions Inc.

“As a small business, it was amazing to find how many resources we could gain through TAP. It has provided a targeted plan with a trajectory into five years down the road; it changed everything. Having TAP in our corner has opened up what the world has to offer.”

Joanne Torrance, Co-Founder/President, La Dee Da Gourmet Sauces

“The TAP program provided an excellent mentor list, connections, and helped us structure our export plan. Since graduating, our sales in the US markets have increased, accounting for roughly 80% of Corl’s current annual revenue. Definitely we are a lot more sophisticated and I would say, less start-up.”

Ben Ames, Business Development, Corl Financial Technologies

“TAP helped us enhance our export plan.”

“Since participating in TAP, we’ve established subsidiaries internationally including United States, UK, and now going into Singapore. We’ve grown about 1500%. We continue to grow 40% month-to-month. TAP delivers a lot of value to the business.”
