Digital Creators Pilot Program

The Digital Creators Pilot Program is designed to support the growth trajectory of mid-career Canadian digital content creators, who are making short-form video content exclusively for digital social media platforms – YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

In addition, starting in 2026-2027, the DCPP will also allow applications from mid-career Canadian podcast creators wishing to grow or expand their business in original video podcast production for the primary podcast platforms – YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Applications are encouraged from Creators who have demonstrated some level of success online and wish to scale their businesses, grow their audience base and build monetization opportunities over a 12-month period.
