Supporting business growth in Ontario.

The OCC offers programs that support the growth and capacity of Ontario businesses. Through the Discover Ability Network, we connect businesses with tools and supports that help them become more inclusive employers and tap into the persons with disabilities talent pool. Through our export and trade events, businesses have the opportunity to meet with foreign governments and trade delegations to help them make new business connection and expand into global markets.

Through this program, small business owners can receive a micro-grant of up to $2,400 to help get their business online or give their e-commerce presence a boost. In addition, e-commerce advisors will be available to work with grant recipients to help identify their digital needs, provide links to digital resources, help with completing applications and answer questions on the Grow Your Business Online program.
