Volta, Scale AI launch program to help supply chain startups scale
Five Atlantic Canadian companies will gain access to funding and consulting resources to develop artificial intelligence (AI) supply-chain technology through a new program, Volta AI, funded by Canadian supercluster Scale AI.
Delivered by Halifax innovation hub Volta, the year-long program will offer participating companies up to $14,000 to help them develop AI products. Participants will also attend workshops and have access to AI experts and investors.
The aim is to raise the profile of AI in Atlantic Canada and encourage more entrepreneurs to consider the region.
Volta CEO Martha Casey said the program’s success will be evaluated primarily based on growth goals set in a consultative process with participants.
