More than a VC firm, more than investors, and more than partners. Above all, we’re builders, driven by purpose.
We elevate founders, companies and communities by mentoring, making connections and opening doors. By building together, we believe we can have a positive, lasting impact on the world.
Our Mission
We actively support founders to build global, sustainable tech companies.
We established Inovia on the premise that a top-tier Canada-headquartered VC was missing. The country was full of amazing talent but needed support to cultivate its potential rather than see it all exported to the US. What we envisioned back in 2007 remains unchanged and still drives everything we do today as Company Builders.
Since our inception, Inovia isn’t just about providing capital to companies; it’s about creating wealth: economic wealth, intellectual wealth, and financial wealth, and also supporting our ecosystem and our communities at every level, especially in our backyard.
