Bankeo and Fonds d’emprunt Québec: A partnership supporting entrepreneurs!

6/7/2026

Quebec City, September 29, 2022 - Bankeo and the Fonds d’emprunt Québec are proud to announce their partnership to make the Bankeo platform available to entrepreneurs at the Fonds d’emprunt Québec and La station (the Fonds d’emprunt Québec’s coworking space).  

Bankeo’s mission is to drive the financial success of entrepreneurs by connecting them with their ideal accountant.

“Bankeo is a platform that stands out because it helps streamline the work of La Station and the Fonds d’emprunt Québec in supporting our service offerings to entrepreneurs, while addressing the issue of the availability of accounting specialists,” emphasizes Jean-Pierre Bédard, Executive Director of Fonds d’emprunt Québec. Combined with its other services, including startup training, financing, and business coaching, Bankeo becomes a powerful ally in supporting Fonds d’emprunt Québec and will undoubtedly help increase the chances of success for the entrepreneurs who use it.

“Labour issues and the challenges of digital transformation are making the accounting market increasingly inaccessible. It is therefore crucial for entrepreneurs to turn to a solution that helps them find an accounting partner suited to their specific needs in order to increase the chances of success for their business venture,” said Arnaud Bertrand, CEO and co-founder of Bankeo.

“When I launched my consulting business, I didn’t know how to manage my accounting and finances. When I asked people around me for advice, everyone referred me to their own accountant for help, and I didn’t know who to turn to. After hours of research and meetings, I ended up changing accountants three times over the course of a few years before I found the one who would change my life. Working with the right partners is essential for an entrepreneur, whether it’s during the launch phase of a project or when optimizing their finances,” says Brian Bergeron, COO and co-founder of Bankeo.

Bankeo is especially proud of this announcement because its CEO has already gone through the Fonds d’emprunt Québec process as part of his first business venture. He recognizes how essential it is to collaborate quickly with the right partners from the very start of a business venture to maximize its chances of success.

Bankeo is available to all businesses for free directly through its website: https://www.bankeo.ca/
