Canada Media Fund (CMF) is opening two programs, informed by industry research and built around a single idea: strong Canadian and Indigenous content needs strong companies.
CMF has announced the first ever CMF Business Development Program along with the second iteration of the Indigenous Company Impact Support program, both investing in businesses, not individual projects.
The CMF also released Beyond Project Funding: Highlights from the CMF’s research on business development funding, a report that informed the CMF’s overall strategic approach to business development.
Read the full program guidelines.
Business Development Applications will open in Dialogue on November 10, 2026.
