New Brunswick taxes small business income at 2.5%, and ACOA adds a federal funding layer only Atlantic provinces get.
What are you looking for?
Updated November 11, 2026. Every number on this page is verified against the GrantCompass catalog (353 New Brunswick programs browsable, 182 of them grants).
New Brunswick businesses have 353 funding programs browsable right now, provincial and federal combined, and 182 of those are genuine non-repayable grants. New Brunswick's own layer is 14 programs, 9 open right now, including the NBIF Innovation Voucher (up to $80,000, 80% of R&D costs), WorkingNB Labour Force Training (up to $20,000 per employer per region), and the NB Small Business Investor Tax Credit. New Brunswick's real structural edge: a 2.5% small business tax rate, one of the lowest in Canada, and the federal Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) adds a regional funding layer no non-Atlantic province gets. One honest flag before you build a plan: ACOA's flagship Business Development Program is an interest-free repayable contribution, not a grant.
New Brunswick's three-city economy, and why it matters for funding
New Brunswick's funding geography follows its economy: Moncton for services, Saint John for industry, Fredericton for government and research money, with a rural lender network covering everywhere else.
Moncton, home to a large bilingual workforce, anchors New Brunswick's service-centre and back-office economy and competes nationally for that kind of investment. Saint John carries the province's heavy industrial base, port infrastructure, and Irving-anchored manufacturing, which pulls federal trade and infrastructure programs toward it. Fredericton, the provincial capital, hosts the New Brunswick Innovation Foundation (NBIF) and Opportunities New Brunswick (ONB), the two bodies that run most of New Brunswick's own R&D and growth funding, alongside the University of New Brunswick (UNB) and the Venn Innovation accelerator. Outside those three cities, New Brunswick's real advantage is the Community Business Development Corporation (CBDC) network, which runs dedicated rural offices in Miramichi, Edmundston, Bathurst, Campbellton, Caraquet, and other communities, backed federally by ACOA out of its regional Atlantic Canada office structure. Sackville, home to Mount Allison University, adds a fourth education-linked node in the southeast, near Dieppe.
Across New Brunswick's 182 browsable non-repayable grants, the 146 with a published maximum have a median cap of $250,000. Most of that ceiling sits far above what an early-stage founder will actually claim, the real range runs from four-figure reimbursements like Export Funding NB up to ACOA-scale contributions in the millions.
If you're in Moncton or Saint John, you're inside the province's densest funding infrastructure already. If you're outside the three cities, CBDC's rural loan network and ACOA's continuous-intake programs are the levers a Moncton-based founder doesn't need but you do, don't skip them just because they're less visible than NBIF's Fredericton-based programs.
Is "NB SEED" a real New Brunswick program?
Partly. New Brunswick has its own SEED Student Entrepreneurship is a Government of New Brunswick and WorkingNB program: a guaranteed interest-free loan of up to $3,000 for New Brunswick students who run a summer business, with up to one third reimbursed if the loan is repaid in full by October 15. Its June 30 deadline has passed, so it is between intakes. The better-known "SEED" funding is regularly cited alongside New Brunswick programs, but Support for Entrepreneurs and Economic Development (SEED) is a Northwest Territories program, run by the NWT government for NWT-based entrepreneurs, not New Brunswick businesses, and a New Brunswick applicant is not eligible for it. If you're looking for New Brunswick's entry-level, non-repayable option, the closer analogues are the NBIF Innovation Voucher (up to $80,000 for R&D and technology projects, 80% cost-shared) if you have a genuine research or development project, or WorkingNB Labour Force Training (up to $20,000 per employer per region) if the funding need is training rather than R&D. Neither is a general-purpose startup grant; New Brunswick does not currently have one. The closest thing to unrestricted early-stage capital is Futurpreneur Canada, a federal loan-plus-mentorship program open in every province, including New Brunswick.
What are you paying for? Sort your costs into New Brunswick doors
New Brunswick small business grants pay for named costs, not for a business in general. As of November 11, 2026, money you keep is open for training staff (WorkingNB, up to $20,000 per employer per region), energy-efficient equipment (NB Power, up to $250,000), R&D with a research partner (NBIF, up to $80,000) and export (Export Funding NB, up to $15,000). Starting the business itself runs through lenders.
Example: a Moncton manufacturer buying machinery, training two staff and covering a slow season.

A small business grant in New Brunswick is non-repayable money from the province, ACOA or Ottawa that pays back part of one named cost after you are approved. A repayable contribution, such as ACOA's Business Development Program, is an interest-free loan, and a tax credit comes back only when you file.

How much has NBIF actually invested?
NBIF describes itself as a $100 million evergreen fund, meaning the original capital base is $100 million and gets reinvested as portfolio companies exit rather than being spent down once. As of this writing, NBIF reports $40 million-plus currently invested across 56 companies in its active portfolio, with 17 successful exits that have returned hundreds of millions to the New Brunswick economy once co-investor capital is counted (NBIF states every dollar it puts in brings roughly $30 more alongside it). If you've seen New Brunswick funding content citing "NBIF has invested over $100 million and created 113+ companies," that figure conflates the fund's total size with its currently-deployed capital and is not what NBIF's own site currently reports. For a founder deciding whether to apply, the number that matters is narrower: NBIF actively manages 56 New Brunswick company investments today, and the Innovation Voucher is the entry point most early-stage founders use to get on NBIF's radar.
ACOA: New Brunswick's federal regional lever
ACOA is the single biggest funding relationship most New Brunswick businesses will have with the federal government, and its flagship program is a loan, not a grant.
The Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) runs three main business-facing streams in New Brunswick, and only one of them is genuinely non-repayable, and that one is restricted to not-for-profits.
| Program | What it gives | Amount | Who |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business Development Program (BDP) | Interest-free repayable contribution | Varies by project | For-profit SMEs, continuous intake since 1995 |
| REGI Business Scale-up & Productivity | Interest-free repayable contribution | Typically $100K–$2M | Established, growth-stage NB businesses |
| REGI Regional Innovation Ecosystems | Non-repayable contribution | Cost-share varies | Not-for-profits only, builds regional capacity |
Outside ACOA's own programs, rural New Brunswick founders have a second federally-linked lender: the CBDC General Business Loan (up to $150,000) and the CBDC First-Time Entrepreneur Loan (up to $150,000), both delivered through the Community Business Development Corporation network across rural Atlantic Canada, including New Brunswick.
For a for-profit New Brunswick business, the Business Development Program is the ACOA door you'll actually walk through, and it's money you pay back, interest-free, once the business is generating revenue. The one genuinely non-repayable ACOA stream, Regional Innovation Ecosystems, funds not-for-profit organizations building shared regional infrastructure, not individual companies, so don't count it as a source for your own business.
Is ACOA's Business Development Program a grant?
No, and this is the single most common mix-up in New Brunswick funding searches. The Business Development Program (BDP) provides interest-free, repayable contributions, essentially a 0% loan, to help small and medium-sized Atlantic Canada businesses grow, improve productivity, and become more competitive. ACOA has run it on continuous intake since 1995, with no fixed application windows, but you do repay the full amount over time. The only fully non-repayable ACOA business stream is Regional Innovation Ecosystems, and it funds not-for-profit organizations building innovation infrastructure, not individual for-profit companies. If a page or ad describes ACOA money as a "grant" without qualifying it, treat that as a flag and confirm the repayment terms directly with your nearest ACOA office before you build a cash-flow plan around it.
Federal programs that apply in every province
Beyond New Brunswick and ACOA, six federal programs cover most of what a New Brunswick business will actually claim, and they apply the same way in every province.
| Program | What it gives | Amount | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| NRC IRAP | Non-repayable grant | Up to $1M typical (median award $75K) | R&D-active NB companies, any industry |
| SR&ED | Refundable tax credit | Up to 35% on first $6M; NB adds 15% more | Any NB firm doing qualifying R&D |
| Futurpreneur Canada | Loan + mentorship | Up to $75K | Founders aged 18–39, pre-revenue OK |
| Canada Small Business Financing Program | Government-backed loan | Up to $1.15M | Any NB small business under $10M revenue |
| CanExport SMEs | Non-repayable grant | Up to $50K/project | NB SMEs exporting outside Canada; between intakes, the 2026-27 intake ended August 31, 2026 |
| Canada Summer Jobs | Wage subsidy | Up to 100% for nonprofits; partial for businesses | Summer student hiring |
Does incorporation matter for federal programs in New Brunswick?
For the largest ones, yes. NRC IRAP, SR&ED's enhanced 35% rate, and CanExport SMEs all require your business to be incorporated; CanExport SMEs additionally expects revenue between roughly $300,000 and $100 million. Futurpreneur Canada is built for the opposite end, it works with pre-revenue and newly-incorporated founders aged 18 to 39, no established revenue required. The Canada Small Business Financing Program sits in between: any small business under $10 million in revenue qualifies, incorporated or not. If you're a sole proprietor in New Brunswick with a genuine R&D project, incorporating before you contact NRC IRAP is usually the single highest-leverage step you can take, it's the gate that blocks the province's largest non-repayable federal grant.
Small business loans and development assistance in New Brunswick
Most of the money a New Brunswick business can actually access is repayable, and which lender will take you is decided first by where you are, not by how good the plan is.
The sections above name the ACOA and federal programs one at a time. This one puts every repayable route beside the others, with the two facts their own pages rarely show together: whether you pay it back, and whether the intake ever closes. The routes described above reappear here on purpose, because the comparison is the point.
| Route | Who it is for | Amount | Repayable? | Intake |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opportunities NB Tariff Working Capital Loans | NB exporters in a tariff-hit sector: 25% or more of sales to US customers, or 25% or more of raw materials under counter-tariffs, profitable before the disruption | $50,000 to $5,000,000 | Yes, loan | Ongoing |
| ACOA Business Development Program | Incorporated Atlantic SMEs, profitable or with a viable path to profit; no minimum operating history | $25,000 to $3,000,000 | Yes, interest free | Continuous since 1995 |
| CBDC General Business Loan | Rural Atlantic businesses that cannot get conventional bank financing; no minimum revenue, startups eligible | $5,000 to $150,000 | Yes, loan | Ongoing |
| CBDC First-Time Entrepreneur Loan | First-time owners in a rural Atlantic community, starting or buying a business | Up to $150,000 | Yes, loan | Ongoing |
| BDC Financing | Canadian businesses operating and generating revenue for at least 12 months | $10,000 to $350,000 online, larger by arrangement | Yes, with interest | Ongoing |
| Canada Small Business Financing Program | Small businesses under $10 million revenue, arranged through your own bank, credit union or caisse populaire | Up to $1.15M: $1M in term loans plus a $150,000 line of credit | Yes, lender's terms | Ongoing |
| Envision Saint John Impact Loan | Small and medium businesses in the City of Saint John, starting up or expanding; incorporation not required | Up to $50,000 | Yes, low interest | No published deadline |
| RDC Rural Economy Fund | Municipalities, non-profits and Indigenous organizations outside Moncton, Saint John and Fredericton with a local economic development project; for-profit businesses only with GNB departmental endorsement or a federal-provincial agreement requirement | $10,000 to $1,000,000 | No, grant | Ongoing |
The provincial layer is narrower than its name suggests
Opportunities New Brunswick is the province's economic development agency, but very little of what it runs is a small business door. Its Tariff Working Capital Loans are open on ongoing intake and go up to $5 million, and they carry a condition worth reading before you start: the applicant has to have explored and exhausted, or be actively pursuing, BDC and EDC federal financing first. In other words, ONB is designed as the lender of last resort for a tariff-hit exporter, not as a first call. The agency's other main instrument, the NB Competitiveness and Growth Program, is aimed at industrial, export-intensive companies significant to the provincial economy, with terms negotiated per company against job-retention and productivity targets. If you run a small operation with no US exposure, neither one is your route, and the honest next stop is a lender rather than the province.
Where you are decides which lender will take you
The CBDC network is the best deal on the list for a small rural business, because it is explicitly for applicants a bank has turned down and it sets no minimum revenue. Its geography is the catch, and our two CBDC records describe it differently, so do not assume either way. Our General Business Loan record notes that the major urban centres, Halifax, Moncton, Saint John, Fredericton and St. John's, are generally excluded because rural geography is required. Our First-Time Entrepreneur Loan record notes instead that service areas are set office by office rather than by a network-wide city exclusion, and that CBDC Charlotte/Kings covers the City of Saint John for one of its programs. The only reliable answer is the office covering your own community, so call it before you rule yourself out. If you are inside a city, Envision Saint John's Impact Loan is the municipal equivalent for Saint John, and BDC and the Canada Small Business Financing Program are open everywhere, the second arranged through the bank you already use rather than through Ottawa.
Development assistance that is not a loan
"Business development assistance" in New Brunswick usually means one of two things, and only one of them is money. The Rural Economy Fund, run by the province's Regional Development Corporation, is the genuine non-repayable option here, at $10,000 to $1,000,000 for a project with clear community economic development outcomes. Municipalities, non-profits and Indigenous organizations are eligible; for-profit businesses are excluded by default and only qualify with explicit GNB departmental endorsement or under a federal-provincial agreement requirement. The project also has to be outside Moncton, Saint John and Fredericton (the fund excludes urban centres over 25,000 population) and serve local or regional economic priorities rather than only your own growth. The other meaning is advisory: CBDC offers counselling alongside its loans, and ACOA expects a conversation with a program officer before an application rather than after it.
Work the list in this order: your own bank under the Canada Small Business Financing Program, then BDC, then CBDC if your community is served, then ACOA's Business Development Program once the project is large enough to justify the paperwork. Opportunities NB sits at the end of that queue by design, not by accident, because its own terms ask you to try the federal lenders first.
Read across before concluding a rule is a New Brunswick one: Nova Scotia business grants runs on the same ACOA and CBDC spine. If the need is people rather than capital, New Brunswick training grants covers WorkingNB and the wage subsidies. And for a far denser local layer, compare Quebec business grants and Quebec startup grants, where a municipal office often delivers the money itself.

Startup loans in New Brunswick for a business with no sales come from four places as of November 11, 2026: the CBDC network for rural owners (up to $150,000), Futurpreneur for founders aged 18 to 39 (up to $75,000, with a mentor), Envision Saint John inside the city (up to $50,000) and Ulnooweg for Indigenous owners. BDC wants a year of revenue first.
| Lender | Takes a business with no sales? | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| CBDC First-Time Entrepreneur Loan | Yes, to start or buy a first business | Rural owners who have never owned a business. Up to $150K. |
| CBDC General Business Loan | Yes, no minimum revenue | Rural businesses a bank turned down. Up to $150K. |
| Futurpreneur Canada | Yes, if first sales are a few months away | Ages 18 to 39, anywhere in the province. Up to $75K and up to two years of mentoring. |
| Envision Saint John Impact Loan | Yes, start-up or expansion | City of Saint John only; incorporation not required. Up to $50K. |
| Ulnooweg Indigenous Business Loans | Yes, startup costs count | First Nations, Métis and Inuit owners in Atlantic Canada, with planning support. |
| BDC Start-up Financing | No | Asks for 12 to 24 months of revenue. Come back after your first year. |
We do not list a New Brunswick grant that pays to open a general business. The exceptions are narrow: the JEDI Aboriginal Development Fund pays 50% of business planning costs for First Nations entrepreneurs (up to $8,000 for an individually owned business), and NBIF's Breakthru pitch competition (up to $200K) is between intakes with no 2027 date yet.
Interest, ceilings and intake for every lender sit in the loans table above; the CBDC row there explains how each office sets its own service area.

Business development assistance in New Brunswick is mostly advice, and most of it comes attached to a lender. As of November 11, 2026, the Community Business Development Corporation (CBDC) network lists 10 New Brunswick offices that give business counselling to startups and existing owners. Futurpreneur adds a mentor for up to two years with its loan, and Propel runs a no-cost online accelerator for Atlantic tech startups.

Before any ACOA application, a conversation with a program officer comes first. Where the next question lives:
Stacking a New Brunswick and federal package
Here's what actually determines whether a stack works: does each program cover a different cost category, or are you trying to double-fund the same invoice? Most programs require you to disclose other funding sources, and paying the same cost twice from two government sources is a compliance problem, not a windfall.
| Layer | Program | Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Non-repayable floor | NBIF Innovation Voucher + SR&ED | R&D costs, plus cash back at year-end |
| Repayable growth capital | ACOA BDP or a CBDC loan | Working capital, equipment, expansion |
| Export layer | CanExport SMEs + Export Funding NB | Market entry, trade-show, consulting costs |
A typical, defensible New Brunswick stack for an early-stage tech founder: the NBIF Innovation Voucher ($80,000, 80% of an R&D project) to fund the work, SR&ED at year-end to claim back a further percentage of the same qualifying spend, and Futurpreneur or a CBDC loan for the working capital that R&D grants don't cover. Note that government assistance you already received, like the NBIF voucher, reduces the pool of expenditures you can claim under SR&ED, so sequence the two with your accountant rather than assuming they simply add together. A growth-stage exporter adds ACOA's Business Development Program or REGI Business Scale-up and Productivity for a larger, interest-free repayable layer, plus CanExport SMEs, once its next intake opens, if the growth plan is international.
Federal business funding on record for New Brunswick companies

| City | Companies on record | Typical total per company | Funded since fiscal 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fredericton | 194 | $213K | 34 |
| Moncton | 140 | $205K | 22 |
| Saint John | 114 | $176K | 17 |
| Dieppe | 53 | $247K | 10 |
| Saint-Quentin | 47 | $217K | 6 |
| Edmundston | 39 | $184K | 6 |
| Miramichi | 39 | $116K | 5 |

How to apply
There's no single New Brunswick funding portal. Each program is applied for directly through the body that delivers it.
- Sort New Brunswick-specific from federal-everywhere money. Decide which of the 14 New Brunswick programs and which of the federal programs open in every province apply to your business.
- Incorporate before you apply to the programs that require it. The NBIF Innovation Voucher, NRC IRAP, SR&ED's enhanced rate, and CanExport SMEs all require it.
- Contact NRC IRAP or ACOA before starting the project. Both require pre-approval or pre-consultation, work already underway generally isn't eligible.
- Apply to the specific program. Submit through NBIF, Opportunities NB, WorkingNB, or ACOA's own portal, not a central website.
- Sequence a stacked package with your accountant. A grant you already received can reduce what you can claim under SR&ED, plan the order before applying to more than one program for the same project.
- Claim SR&ED at year-end. File with your corporate return within 18 months of fiscal year-end, an absolute deadline with no extensions, and New Brunswick's 15% provincial credit stacks directly on top.
