Businesses
Montréal offers an environment conducive to the establishment and development of businesses thanks to its network of partners and organizations and to its subsidy programs and support services.
Network of experts
The PME MTL network is an important actor in Montréal’s economic development. It offers private and social economy entrepreneurs a full slate of support services. Entrepreneurs benefit from expertise and the support of advisors at each step in their development.
Guidance and subsidies
Companies across all activity sectors can rely on support from the city and the actors involved in its economic development. Some of these programs and subsidies are offered on a city-wide scale, while others are available only in specific boroughs.
