Your real odds
No acceptance rate is published, and your competitiveness comes down to how well your project maps to the stated priority themes for that specific intake.
FedDev Ontario scores applications against intake-specific priorities, so clean growth, ZEV, and technology alignment are not just nice to have for the current focus areas. The last intake closed December 20, 2024, and the next priorities may shift.

Worth knowing
FedDev Ontario treats inclusive growth and regional coverage as cross-cutting principles across all themes, so projects that create opportunities for underrepresented groups or serve small and rural communities carry an advantage that applies regardless of which priority theme you are applying under.
