What We Do

Empowerment and Growth in Ontario
Venture Ontario actively manages the province's venture capital investment portfolio, ensuring that high-potential funds and companies gain the essential capital they require to flourish. As a pivotal player in the province's economic growth, we not only direct resources but also make strategic investment decisions, propelling Ontario's most innovative and promising ventures towards success and prosperity.

Aligned with Ontario's broader policy goals, Venture Ontario aims to develop a more profitable, globally competitive, and self-sustaining venture capital industry. We assist Ontario's entrepreneurial and innovative businesses in becoming global leaders, resulting in the creation of the next generation of high-quality, high-paying jobs in Ontario—at no cost to taxpayers.

The Power of Partnerships
Following a recognized and successful partnership model, Venture Ontario has allocated nearly $400 million to venture capital funds across thirteen entities either based in or focused on Ontario. These funds in turn support emerging companies or managers helping them to scale up and compete globally. The robust relationships we've forged continue to energize Ontario's thriving venture capital ecosystem.
