Founders, investors and executives need immigration advice that understands the business as well as the file. We assess viability before you commit capital.
Business immigration is the most fact-specific area we practise. The right stream depends on your capital, sector and appetite for risk.
Permanent residence for founders
For innovative, scalable businesses backed by a designated incubator, angel group or venture fund. We prepare the pitch materials, coordinate with designated organisations and file the permanent residence application alongside an optional work permit.
Ontario · BC · Alberta and others
Each province operates its own entrepreneur or investor stream with different net worth, investment and job creation thresholds. We match your capital and sector to the province where you are most competitive.
Culture and athletics
For applicants with world-class experience in cultural or athletic fields who intend to be self-employed in Canada. Evidence of achievement and a credible plan to contribute are decisive.
Buy or build, then transition
Acquiring or establishing a Canadian business and obtaining a work permit to run it, then moving to permanent residence through Express Entry or a provincial nomination.
For established companies
Moving executives, managers or specialised knowledge staff into a Canadian branch, subsidiary or new office, including the additional evidence a start-up branch requires.
Canadian immigration authorities evaluate economic benefit, genuine intent, and capital structure.
