We're an incubator passionate about helping you build your business
We’re an incubator passionate about helping you build your business, while providing affordable space, and a diverse network of mentors and community. FACT: Current survival rates for small and medium-sized businesses in Canada are very low — 15 percent of new startups fail in year one, while 50 percent won’t see the end of year five. That’s a high failure rate when you consider 98 percent of Canadians work in small businesses.* Open Sky Incubator is a technology incubator in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. Our goal is to help technology businesses and entrepreneurs increase survival and success rates by helping you connect, learn, and grow.
