Eligibility

Who this program is for.

Canadian SME developing and demonstrating clean technology with quantifiable environmental and economic benefits. Matching capital from other sources is required.

Use of proceeds

What this capital can fund.

Outside these categories the program either isn’t a fit or requires a non-standard structuring conversation. The screener cross-references your specific use of proceeds against the full catalog before recommending an instrument.

What Capital Toolkit does

CPA-led engagement, not lead generation.

Whether the answer is Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC)or something else in the catalog, the engagement starts the same way: a CPA reviews the use of proceeds, the balance sheet, and the projections to confirm the right structure. Only then do we build the package and approach providers. The catalog page's screener exists to triage cleanly; this page exists so you can read the program in detail before that conversation.

If Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC)is the right fit, you’ll get a normalized financial package, a coverage or eligibility analysis appropriate to the program category, and provider / program outreach handled by a CPA with the engagement still under one roof.
