How Has Covid-19 Impacted Atlantic Canadian Startups?

We want to produce a snapshot of how Atlantic Canadian founders and their companies are bearing up through the current pandemic and economic downturn. Entrevestor and Pivotal Coaching are partnering to conduct a two-minute survey on how the crisis is impacting startups, scaleups and other high-growth, innovation-driven businesses in Atlantic Canada.

We’ve devised an eight-question survey for these companies. If you head a company producing an innovative product for the global market, we’d like you to complete this survey.

The goal is to provide an immediate benchmark on how the pandemic is impacting the region’s startups and scaleups. We plan to release the results on the week of April 20, giving policy-makers and the community information on how the crisis is impacting employment, revenues and resources in the startup segment.

We’ve made this survey anonymous, and held it to just a few questions. Please take about two minutes to complete it so the community can better understand this rapidly changing situation. We’ll run this survey until the evening of April 17.
