The AGE-WELL National Impact Challenge is back for 2024! This year’s competition – the AGE-WELL National Impact Challenge: Solutions for Healthy Aging – will be held on October 24 in Edmonton, Alberta as part of the AGE-WELL Annual Conference.

The AGE-WELL National Impact Challenge: Solutions for Healthy Aging recognizes top startups and supports entrepreneurship in Canada’s AgeTech sector. Applicants from across the country will participate in a pitch competition where they will be challenged to explain how their solution can positively impact older Canadians and/or caregivers.

This year’s winner will receive $25,000 in cash plus in-kind prizes. A runner-up will be eligible for a $5,000 cash prize. The Ontario Brain Institute (OBI) is the key sponsor of this year’s National Impact Challenge: Solutions for Healthy Aging, with additional support from Bereskin & Parr.
