$250,000 in Grants: How Your Business Can Benefit Right Now
In this episode of Hypergrowth, we welcome Francis Desrochers, co-founder of helloDarwin, a Quebec-based company specializing in securing grants and tax credits for growing SMEs.
Francis reveals how to access up to $250,000 through the PSCE program, the mistakes that cause 50% of applications to fail, and the government's real priorities in 2025. We also discuss the risks of using AI to write applications—and why a poorly designed project is automatically rejected.
