OUR COMPANY

"We have been using CICG as a resource for around seven years. They have been extremely helpful at assisting when the workload piles up from services such as policy writing, grant applications, HR support, and general business planning. The team cares, produces results, and never pushes for services that are not required. They have become a “go-to” resource for our company"

Dave Andersen, Research and Development Manager, Arctic Spas

"We've had the pleasure of working with CICG on several projects, including developing our organizational business plan and pursuing new funding opportunities. Their work consistently exceeded expectations, and their team impressed us with their professionalism, enthusiasm, and expertise. We wholeheartedly recommend CICG to anyone seeking exceptional business writing and strategic support."

Darrell Petras, P.Ag., CEO, Canadian Agri-Food Automation and Intelligence Network

"SHRED Capital recently engaged CICG to assist with detailed CMF grant filings for a number of our clients and we found their service to be timely, informative and extremely proactive. Due to the sensitive nature of these filings constant communication with the CICG team was imperative and we found them to be consistently responsive and constructive with their comments and directives. We fully intend to contract their services again when the circumstance warrants."

Lance Davis, CFO, SHRED Capital

"Campus Innovation has been an invaluable partner to us as we navigate market research, grant applications, and strategic planning. Their team are mature, agile, and value-focussed. They've been a partner and a coach. I'm not sure how we'd have reached all the goals we have without their guidance and expertise."

Paul Bellows, President, Yellow Pencil

"Securing funding is a critical milestone for most growing tech companies, but navigating the ever-evolving non-dilutive funding ecosystem can be complex. Since partnering with Campus Innovation, Darkhorse has unlocked more opportunities, improved our applications, and achieved significantly greater success. Their expertise has been invaluable in helping us accelerate growth without compromising equity. Highly recommended for any company looking to thrive in this space."

Craig Hiltz, Business Development Lead, Darkhorse Analytics

"We have been working with CIGC for around 2 years. Their breadth of knowledge of what grants are available, how to structure the applications, and all the personal connections they have with the various agencies has been highly valuable for us as we navigate all the various government application processes. They get it, and they care, and we have been far more successful than without them. They have become a key resource for Flexxaire over the last couple years, and I expect them to play a significant role for us into the future."

Jon McCallum, CEO, Flexxaire
