Our Why

Our Mission

Doing good and delivering results.

Stellar Results + Massive Social Impact

We believe that a Venture Capital (VC) fund can invest in incredible companies that can scale massively and yield great returns as well as deliver a measurable, scalable, and meaningful social impact.

Pairing on Mission and Values

Capital is plentiful and amazing entrepreneurs are everywhere. Our goal is to find mission and value oriented limited partners and pair them with entrepreneurs who share similar values and goals. When these are aligned, expect a magical impact!

Our Thesis

In Summary, we will invest between $25,000 and $200,000 CAD in companies that are at the pre-seed or seed level and can demonstrate both a financial and social impact return to its shareholders. We have the ability to make follow on investments and can act fast!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a focus on industry or sector

No limitations on which industry/sector your venture addresses, however, there must be a social impact in addition to the obvious financial return.

How important is artificial intelligence and machine learning

We give a stronger preference to ventures who already leverage AI/ML or have concrete near terms plans in doing so.

What are the key areas of focus

Ventures that focus on mental health, security, safety, wellness, anti-racism, environmental stewardship, clean energy, education and having a clear motive to deliver a positive social impact will be provided a higher priority in our assessment.

Does the venture have to be in Canada

No, the venture can be located anywhere in the world, however, must be able to offer their product/service to Canadians or have concrete plans in doing so soon.

Will the fund lead an investment round

Typically, not – we love to participate in syndicate deals and work with other investors/funds who share common values and objectives.

What is your affiliation with the TELUS Community Safety and Wellness Accelerator

This fund is 100% independent from that accelerator; however, we participate actively in the accelerator and watch closely the companies in the various cohorts. We will give higher priority to graduates of that accelerator program.

What are the timelines and process in requesting an investment

A pitch deck and any other supporting materials can be emailed to us and if there’s interest, we would reach out and schedule a call. From there it will depend on the terms of the round, who’s leading it, and other factors. Our goal would be to make a decision (on those we deem to be a fit) within 3 weeks from the point where the key criteria for our investment has been met.
