Invest Together in Climate Innovation

Overview

Spring aims to increase the flow of investment capital into Canadian climate innovation startups while also supporting the success and sustainability of the ventures through investment readiness training, financial & legal support, mentorship and post deal advisory work. We also recognize the systemic underfunding of underrepresented founders and will prioritize their ventures in this program to create equitable access to funding for all.

What to Expect

Invest Together in Climate Innovation (previously the Impact Investor Challenge) is a value-packed program, educating participants on what it looks like to evaluate impact business as an investment. 16 companies will participate in investment readiness programming to be well poised to present their companies. Participants will go through a learning journey together and then a Top 5 will be selected to dive deeper into understanding the due diligence process. Participants will then have the optional opportunity to invest in the Top Company.
