YSpace

YSpace is York University's pan-university entrepreneurship and innovation hub that supports startups and entrepreneurs. It provides support through dedicated programming, customized mentorship, and access to capital and industry networks. YSpace runs several accelerator and incubator programs, some of which are sector-agnostic, while others focus on technology, agri-food, women-led businesses, and Black-led businesses. Some programs, like the Tech Accelerator, offer equity-free cash prizes, and others provide funding to validate commercial potential.
