Grant and Funding Programs Offered by La Ruche

Since its inception, La Ruche has played a decisive role in Quebec's entrepreneurial landscape, facilitating access to financing for numerous innovative projects. Thanks to its unique model, the platform has raised over $35 million in participatory financing, supporting more than 1,900 successful campaigns. This success is due in part to the high success rate of campaigns hosted on the platform, which reaches 80%. A distinctive aspect of The Hive is its additional funding programs. In collaboration with partners such as the Quebec government and RECYC-QUÉBEC, The Beehive offers project promoters access to subsidies that enhance the amounts raised from the community. For example, the ImpACTE Fund, supported by Canada Economic Development, can match up to $25,000 raised through a crowdfunding campaign. The impact of La Ruche is not limited to financing. The platform also offers personalized support to project leaders, helping them to structure their campaign, mobilize their community and maximize their chances of success. This holistic approach has helped strengthen Quebec's entrepreneurial ecosystem by supporting local initiatives and promoting citizen participation.
