Celebrating International Women’s Day. So proud of our own women at McRock for all they have done to champion #DiversityandInclusion. @WhitVC and @Ha_Venture have absolutely changed the way I think for the better. There is still so much more we can do.
Venture Capital investment $ for 2020 in Canada was down 20% over 2019. Given the COVID matching programs by @ExportDevCanada and @BDC_Capital, likely a much sharper decline if normalized. US VC’s only responsible for 35% of total - lowest since 2015. thesource.refinitiv.com/thes…
