Are you a visionary founder or an experienced professional ready to build something disruptive? Antler Canada is looking for passionate innovators to tackle real-world problems and create the next big thing. Join our March 2025 Residency Program and collaborate with like-minded trailblazers. Apply now to make your mark


For our March 2025 cohort, we're looking for someone with:

  • Experience in developing FinTech platforms and leading the technical execution of digital financial solutions, and familiarity with industry dynamics.
  • Demonstrate in-depth knowledge of industry of interest, with strong understanding of customer pain points and industry dynamics.
  • Exceptional problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to break down complex issues and bring structure to business cases.
  • Interested in driving change, adoption, and scaling a business from scratch
  • A passion for solving real-life pain points and challenges faced by industries and consumers.
  • You may enter the program on an existing idea, however that is not a requirement of the program.


Program Details

  • Start Date: March 24, 2025
  • Program Length: 10 weeks
  • Location: Onsite at our Toronto Offices
  • Compensation: Successful candidates would be provided with a $3,000 stipend
  • Requirements: you will need to be a Canadian citizen or PR card holder in order to qualify
  • Full time, full commitment


Program Structure:

The in-person program is structured in two phases and runs full-time:

  • Phase 1 runs for ~2.5 months and is focused on venture development and testing a startup hypothesis. Here we surround you with everything you need to build at lightning speed: a community of diverse founders so that you can find the right co-founder, coaching from our team of proven founders and advisors, perks from hundreds of partners and a global network. At the end of this phase, your team will pitch to our Investment Committee. Successful teams will receive pre-seed funding from Antler and move to Phase 2.
  • During Phase 2, which runs for ~3.5 months, you will receive personalized coaching from our partners and global network of advisors to help you scale and hire your core team. It culminates with Demo Day, where you will get the opportunity to pitch to local and international investors


Post-Residency Roadmap:

  • You enter Phase 3 once you have left stealth mode and your startup is live. Antler becomes a long term partner for your startup and our global network continues supporting you while scaling and growing your startup. We provide capital up to Series C with our Global Access Fund. You also become part of a strong global network of founders who exchange best practices and learn from each other.

At Antler, the core philosophy is “Founder First,” with a strong belief that passionate individuals are instrumental in transforming the future.
