We are currently pursuing deals on a very selective basis – we are particularly interested in companies that have demonstrated traction with paying customers. Our criteria is currently:

  • Technology companies based in Canada
  • Pre-seed to seed-stage companies (our average cheque size is $50K CAD with round sizes varying between $2K to $150K CAD)

  • Traction (growth, revenue, users)

  • Team (founders, board, advisors, existing investors)
