Your real odds
No public data on acceptance rates or annual deal volume is available, so you are going in without a benchmark.
This is a government-backed VC program with a dedicated team that sources deals on an ongoing basis rather than through fixed intake rounds, and your real competition is other Nova Scotia tech startups in their pipeline.
