CapitalRoad’s mission: linking Canada’s highest quality, emerging technology companies to the most active and supportive investors.

CapitalRoad is an industry leading, not-for-profit foundation committed to improving the opportunities for early and growth stage Canadian technology companies to better access investment financing and is pleased to endorse the efforts of the Canadian venture capital and technology communities.

CapitalRoad proudly operates the Banff Venture Forum and the Canadian Financing Forum. These events represent Canada’s largest investment forum operation, and are aimed at enhancing the access to capital environment for emerging and growth stage Canadian technology entrepreneurs.

CapitalRoad’s unique focus on access-to-capital programs complements the programs of other not-for-profit technology commercialization associations, incubators and innovation centres. CapitalRoad is sharply focused on developing innovative, synergistic relationships with partner organizations across Canada, and beyond, as a means to assist early-stage technology entrepreneurs along their company building journey.

Every year, approximately 75 of the most promising hi-tech companies from across North America are showcased, with both Forums offering delegates unparalleled insight into key issues within the industry, premium networking opportunities and the chance to learn from world-class professionals in the investment community.
