They prefer investments in Alberta, particularly Calgary and Edmonton, but also invest in the US. Their diverse approach spans AI, biotech, enterprise software, fintech, and health care. Typically, they participate alongside other investors rather than leading rounds. Ideal candidates are early-stage tech startups in sectors such as AI, health tech, or fintech, based in Alberta or Canada, with strong growth potential and the ability to leverage the fund’s hands-on support and advisory network.
