La Guilde and Ubisoft are proud to join forces to create the Ubisoft Entrepreneurial Caravan, presented by National Bank. The only one of its kind in Canada, this support program is designed to accelerate the growth of Quebec video game entrepreneurs through an annual four-stage process. With the help of local and international experts, the program offers training, networking and professional exchanges, as well as a chance for the general public to discover the studios. With themes ranging from business start-up to marketing and discoverability, not forgetting the search for financing, independent video game companies benefit from a complete path to ensure the success of their entrepreneurial project.
The pathway is made up of four key moments during the year, in line with the development stages of independent studios. Initially dedicated to startups in Quebec City in February, it moves to the regions of Quebec in May to support the commercialization of intermediate and advanced studios, then stops in Montreal in October to propel the most promising projects. At the end of the year, all the studios get together to take stock of what they’ve learned and experienced, and to carry out actions of a charitable nature.
