February 21, 2026 How to pass technical due diligence for Quebec's top incubators (Centech, District 3)

Hi everyone,

I’ve been analyzing what top-tier incubators in Montreal/Quebec actually look for when they evaluate a startup's MVP.

Most founders think it's all about the business model, but for tech-heavy programs, they really dig into your architecture and scalability. I've put together a guide covering the specific criteria for Centech and District 3 to help founders avoid the common 'technical debt' trap before applying.

You can find the full breakdown here: https://www.novia-lab.com//blog/mvp-startup-quebec-incubateurs-accelerateurs

Curious to hear from other agency owners: How do you prepare your clients for these kinds of technical audits?
