To Our Pocketed Community,
We started Pocketed 4 years ago to solve a problem: building a business is hard, and one of the biggest barriers is money. As repeat founders, we’ve lived this pain. We experienced firsthand how grants, SR&ED, and other non-dilutive funding could be a game-changer – but the process was frustrating, confusing, and time-consuming. We knew there had to be a better way.Â
So, we built Pocketed – an intelligent platform designed to make funding accessible, simple, and powerful for businesses like yours. Since 2021, we’ve helped more than 17,000 businesses access over $200 million in grants, tax credits, and incentives. Money to fuel their growth – to make their first hire, purchase critical equipment, expand to new markets, and solve big problems through innovation. Â
From the beginning, we wanted to empower entrepreneurs. It’s in our DNA, and it became our mission with Pocketed. Along the way, we built an amazing team and rapidly evolved our offerings to meet your needs. Â
Today, we’re excited to share that Pocketed has been acquired by Deloitte Canada! By joining forces, we’re expanding our ability to empower businesses with the funding, resources, and insights you need to grow, compete, and lead on a global stage. Â
