About Us
No matter your political beliefs, we can all agree our government is misallocating our tax dollars. Our mission at Impact Applications is to better direct our tax dollars to help innovative companies develop technologies to improve lives by securing grants for businesses while minimizing time, stress, and confusion.
Peter Hurd-Watler
Peter Hurd-Watler is a serial entrepreneur with over a decade of experience starting and managing successful businesses.
He secured over $300,000 of grant funding for his previous software company which inspired him to co-found Impact Applications.
Peter is passionate about helping innovative companies get funding to develop technologies and improve the lives of others.
He has developed an appreciation and understanding of different peoples and cultures by traveling to over 60 countries.
He is an alumnus of Draper University in Silicon Valley and is completing his business and arts degrees at the University of Lethbridge, which has sharpened his superpower of combining big picture financial thinking with the meticulous research and writing.
Chase Miller
A two-time entrepreneur, Chase thrives on building businesses—and helping others do the same.
He lives by the quote, “1% better every day,” knowing that success isn’t built overnight, but with relentless focus and work ethic, anything is possible.
Recognizing the lack of support for grant writing in Canada, Chase saw how businesses struggled with the time, resources, and energy needed to navigate the complex application process.
His mission is to change that—helping companies secure the funding they need to survive, grow, and thrive!
Beyond work, Chase is an avid traveler and lifelong athlete. He played hockey from age three through university and still hits the ice regularly.
When he’s not playing hockey, you’ll find him working out, shooting hoops, or teeing off on the golf course.
Hockey has ingrained in him the values that fuel his entrepreneurial drive: leadership, teamwork, the power of positive thinking, and a relentless competitive edge—his true superpower.
