and how to complete and submit a program application.
The Summer Company Program will be delivered virtually by the Brampton Entrepreneur Centre (BEC) for the Brampton & Caledon area.
Please note: Brampton’s Summer Company program will prioritize new businesses only in Brampton and Caledon that are sales-ready and must demonstrate that the business can operate and follow all government guidelines.
Approval of applications to participate in the Summer Company program is a competitive process. Students accepted in the 2025 Summer Company Program can receive up to $1,500 at the start of the summer to assist with start-up and operating costs while also receiving hands-on business training and mentorship from business professionals and entrepreneurs throughout the summer! Upon successful completion of the program, students can receive an additional $1,500 at the end of their summer experience. It is expected that students will be able to self-fund their start-up until the initial disbursement of $1,500 is released.
