Startup Canada is celebrating Pride Month in June 2025 by amplifying 2SLGBTQIA+ voices through a special Startup Podcast takeover and the relaunch of a curated 2SLGBTQIA+ Entrepreneurship Resource Guide.
The Entrepreneurship Resource Guide, developed with CGLCC and presented by Wealthy Unicorn, provides tools, templates, and content for 2SLGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs to address funding access and bias challenges in business.
The Pride Podcast Takeover features 2SLGBTQIA+ founders, leaders, and changemakers sharing stories about their work in health care, fashion, archives, fundraising, and more throughout the month.
Episodes include discussions with individuals such as Dr. Caley Shukalek, Rae Hill, Raegan Swanson, Elizabeth Murphy, and Dr. Colum Connolly, highlighting their missions and contributions to the community.
