Who we are

As Canada's oldest VC firm, we partner with early-stage startups coast-to-coast to build the next generation of Canada's tech leaders.

Our team of 12 manages $450M across 3 funds and 27 SPVs with offices in Toronto and Montreal.

Funding Requirements

We invest in Seed and Series A rounds across Canada, coast-to-coast, as lead or co-lead. As a generalist VC firm, our thesis includes SaaS, software, hardware, deeptech, fintech, devtools, IoT, e-commerce, and marketplace businesses across B2B, B2C, and DTC business models.

We are your early stage VC for the long run.

Value add

We work closely with our founders as trusted board members and advisors by securing future financings, recruiting key hires, guiding key strategic decisions, and being a steady sounding board for all matters. We aim to be our founder's first call, for both good news and bad.

Our founders are the best testament to our work ethic.
