ICCC is excited to launch the Equal Slice Program in Canada for the second time in 2022, thanks to our lead sponsor, Pizza Hut Canada!
While this cohort will support small businesses across Canada, we will focus recruitment efforts in Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, and Vancouver. ICCC has worked in over 20 cities across the United States, and we look forward to expanding our reach internationally into Canada!
The ICCC-Pizza Hut Equal Slice program will be offered virtually in 2022, with the Opening Seminar Series taking place the afternoons of Tuesday, September 20th and Thursday, September 22nd.

“Taking part in the ICCC Equal Slice program gave us dedicated time to think about our business strategically and to make thoughtful plans for the coming year. It allowed us to interrupt the inertia of our day to day business activities to critically think about where we are and where we want to go. Being exposed to a higher level of learning was energizing and inspiring.”
