The TEDC works with several outside partners including the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade, the Canadian Youth Business Foundation, the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry and the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation to offer a variety of programs that are aimed at fostering the spirit of entrepreneurship in our youth. These programs offer funding and support to youth entrepreneurs wanting to start their own business.

We are currently offering five programs: start-me-up, the Business Plan Challenge, Summer Company, the Canadian Youth Business Foundation and the Young Entrepreneur program.
