It's Canada's time

The True North Fund is a secondary-focused venture capital fund exclusively by Canadians, for Canadians, with a focus on helping our founders become world leaders. 

True North Fund I will invest specifically in growth-stage technology companies – keeping them in Canada, and driving our innovation economy to new heights. Aligning the ambitions of our best funders and founders, the fund will provide invaluable secondary liquidity to let companies focus on what they do best.

A dream team of funders & founders

Creating a billion-dollar revenue company takes a lot more than simply writing a cheque at the right time. You need the right people surrounding you – peers who have been there before, and coaches who can guide you through difficult spots.

True North Fund I will leverage Canada’s global diaspora, providing access to knowledgeable expats inside the world’s top tech giants, and veteran founders with past successes and stories to share. 

A data-driven approach to selecting performers

With the True North Fund I, we will find True North Strong™ companies – elite performers in the tech ecosystem who display capital-efficient growth, scalable opportunities and global leadership potential.
