TBDC GoEU takes Ontario tech companies into
Europe and converts readiness into customer wins.
No existing Canadian program delivers
this for Europe. GoEU Does.
TBDC GoEU takes Ontario tech companies into Europe and converts readiness into customer wins. Real customer meetings, real product validation, real first contracts, generating revenue, in-market and on the ground.
Europe is already Canada’s second-largest trading partner.
Europe is 32 million businesses across various markets and sectors with 500 million consumers behind them. The opportunity is wide open and barely tapped by Canadian tech.
The Atlantic Ocean just shrunk.
Canada and the EU are closer than ever with historic agreements, growing business ties, and both sides leaning in. Europe wants what Canada builds. Under CETA, 98% of tariffs are removed. The companies that cross now will lead the next chapter, not chase it.
