Are you an agri-food entrepreneur looking to grow your business?

The Northern Ontario Value-Added Agriculture (NOVA) Program, led by the Rural Agri-Innovation Network (RAIN), is designed to support agri-food entrepreneurs by providing them with training, mentorship, and business development resources.

Through specialized training and one-on-one mentorship, NOVA equips business owners with the skills, knowledge, and connections they need to launch, grow, and scale their ventures in the competitive agri-food sector.

Who Should Apply? You are an ideal mentee if you:

  • Own a registered agri-food business in Northern Ontario
  • Are committed to scaling your business & overcoming challenges
  • Have specific goals you want to achieve with mentorship
  • Can dedicate time & effort to actively participate

While there is no cost to participate in the NOVA Mentorship Program, only a select number of entrepreneurs will be invited to participate (after filling out an application). The deadline to apply is February 28, 2025.
