Challenge Innovators - Innovation Exchange Canada

As an innovative person or small-to-midsize business, you thrive on the intellectual and creative challenge of solving tough problems, and appreciate the recognition from your peers and the management of leading enterprises.

You can expand your network of valuable business contacts, thanks to Innovation Exchange's team-based approach. You'll develop relationships with community members who can also be useful outside IX - for business development, recruiting, investment searches and more.

And you can earn significant financial remuneration; IX Sponsors pay for the best solutions. These exciting queries from Global 5000 companies include:

  • A leading food and beverage company, offering $100,000
  • An international manufacturer and distributor, offering $50,000

“What do I have to do earn these rewards?”
Sponsor companies need your innovative thinking, not a big binder of filler. For most innovation challenges, the expectation is that submissions should be approximately five to 10 written pages in length, or 12 to 15 presentation slides.

You're an Innovator if...
