Scale your agritech innovation in Canada
Innovate UK is inviting UK-based agritech businesses to join their Global Incubator Programme (GIP) for market visits to Saskatchewan, Canada. Up to five businesses will be selected to receive fully funded support to engage with local agritech hubs the Agtech Accelerator and Cultivator Business Incubator.
Saskatchewan is one of Canada’s strongest agritech ecosystems. It holds over 40% of the country’s cultivated farmland, giving companies direct access to real-world testing environments and a large network of producers.

- a preparation workshop and programme briefing
- up to six months working with the incubator through virtual sessions
- two market visits to Canada (in April and July 2026)

The programme offers a unique opportunity to meet potential partners and collaborators, and identify opportunities for growth.
