At Harvest, our vision is to create an epicentre for innovation and technology across the Canadian Prairies. Headquartered in Calgary's East Village, our team helps remove the barriers to launching and scaling up ventures so that together we can grow meaningful, globally-competitive companies.
Whether we are building a venture from scratch or helping solve a specific business challenge, companies and founders that partner with Harvest gain access to world-class builder services and industry experts who know what it takes to successfully launch and scale new ventures.
Harvest is a venture builder and innovation platform. Our programs help startups grow and scale by bridging the skills, talent, and funding gaps that tech companies across the Prairies often face throughout the startup lifecycle.
Harvest offers two programs. Our Venture Builder program connects founders, partners, and investors to build new companies. Our services include innovation and finance strategy, founder search, recruitment and talent management, as well as brand and go-to-market strategy.
Within our Growth Program, we work with startups to grow and scale their businesses. We provide consultative services in the areas of growth marketing, talent management and recruitment, finance and fundraising support.
Within our portfolio of co-build ventures, as well as for external growth services clients, Harvest's fundraising experts support in pitch deck development, cap table and financial modeling, grant writing, attracting investors and helping companies secure funding.
Working closely with founding teams, Harvest provides a range of expertise and services throughout the startup lifecycle, including innovation and finance strategy, marketing, recruitment, and fundraising support.
While Harvest helps co-build a limited number of new ventures each year, our team also engages with businesses through our Growth Program, primarily seed-stage to Series A startups and beyond.
Harvest is currently prioritizing its venture build portfolios within financial technology, including wealth management, insurance, and real-estate.
