Plug and Play Accelerator

After a successful pitch competition, Innova received one of the highest rankings and was invited to join Plug and Play's Sustainability and Clean Resources program!

Out of hundreds of applicants from around the globe, Innova was selected as one of 17 startups (and one of two hydrogen tech companies!) to participate in the accelerator program.

Innova is excited to be working with Plug and Play and its corporate partners as it works diligently to bring its novel technology to market.

Plug and Play Alberta's goal is to help fast-track impactful partnerships between startups and corporate partners in Alberta, Canada. Their program aims to facilitate business opportunities for pilot projects and proof of concepts, while developing new and existing relationships with Plug and Play’s global ecosystem of corporate partners and investors. An Advisory Board has been established to jointly guide startups, including representatives from Pathways Alliance, EY Canada, bp, Cenovus Energy, and Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNRL).

The program will run until the Plug and Play Alberta's EXPO on November 29th & 30th, 2022 in Banff, Alberta, which marks the highly anticipated graduation of Plug and Play’s fall cohort.

We are immensely grateful for all of the incredibly positive feedback and the insightful mentorship and learnings to be had within this program.
