Bain Public to lead an expert workshop in collaboration with Centech-Accélération



(Montreal, Canada) – Paul Ortchanian, Founder, CEO, Head of Product, Data and Strategy of Bain Public, will be leading a workshop on September 17th in collaboration with Centech: a world-class business incubator based in Montreal.

Centech is dedicated to high-tech (deeptech) companies with high growth potential. It is a non-profit organization fueled by ÉTS open to everyone and offers two support programs for startups: the acceleration program (12 weeks), then the strongest potentials are selected to get into the propulsion program (24 months). Centech performs particularly well in the fields of medical technology, manufacturing, telecoms and microelectronics and other intelligent objects. In 2019, Centech was recognized by UBI Global as one of the most successful university incubators in the world.

As of September 8th, three cohorts began the acceleration program; an entirely free program that allows founders to materialize their tech projects. The fall 2020 cohort has 3 main themes: Medtech, Industry 4.0 (in partnership with Investment Quebec), and Artificial Intelligence (Supply chain). They will go through a 12-week process that includes workshop sessions every 2-weeks hosted by industry experts and in-house entrepreneurs. Centech also offers the participants a personalized experience with one-on-one coaching, expert clinics with varied subjects, and conferences run by entrepreneurs & influential industry personalities. At the end of the acceleration program, the most promising ideas will be selected for the propulsion program. They will then have access to even more guidance for the next 2 years at most.
