Your real odds
Competitiveness figures are not public, so you are entering a government program with a fixed annual deadline and a maximum award of $15,000.
The 50% cost-share requirement keeps the pool focused on a defined set of activities, and meeting every criterion matters as much as applying on time.
What it takes
Register your company on the Ontario Creates Online Application Portal (OAP)1–2 hours
Read the current program guidelines and use the GMD Activity Calculator to plan eligible costs2–4 hours
Complete and submit the application form through the OAP before the deadline2–4 hours
Worth knowing
The funder explicitly warns applicants to start early in case the portal needs technical support, so build in at least a few days before the deadline to sort out any registration problems.
