Investment approach
- Thesis
- We are thesis-driven investors who concentrate on company fundamentals, not flavours-du-jour. While we are stage-agnostic, our sweet spot is typically Series A. We prefer to lead priced rounds but will also join syndicates and are open to providing primary or secondary capital. We mainly work with Canadian companies but can invest across North America.Source (opens in a new tab)
