NexScale Team
Marketing & Communications
We are proud to announce that NexScale has been awarded a $75,000 grant from Mitacs, in partnership with George Brown Polytechnic, to support 10 graduate student internships joining our team.
This is an important milestone for our company, and a meaningful step forward in the mission we are building toward:
Scaling wellness and fitness businesses today. Powering human longevity tomorrow.
Wellness is where we start. Longevity is where we are going. The graduate researchers joining us through this partnership will help shape that journey.
The partnership behind the grant
This milestone is made possible by two organizations we are proud to work with:
Mitacs is Canada’s leading program connecting academic talent with industry. This grant represents more than funding. It reflects confidence in the direction we are taking and the work we are building.
George Brown Polytechnic is one of Toronto’s leading institutions for applied education. Its graduates bring strong practical skills and problem-solving capabilities that align closely with our needs. This partnership gives us access to high-caliber talent while offering students the opportunity to work on real-world problems in AI, wellness, and go-to-market strategy.
Together, NexScale, Mitacs, and George Brown Polytechnic are contributing to a stronger connection between academia and industry, supporting meaningful innovation in Canada.
