Summary
The Canadian Venture Capital Association (CVCA) recently made
its Submission to the Federal Government's Innovation and
Growth Agenda (the "Submission"). The
Submission responds to a call made earlier this year by the
Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development for input
from Canadians on six areas of action relating to entrepreneurship,
growth, and productivity. This input will be used to develop the
Minister's Inclusive Innovation Agenda and give effect to his
vision of Canada as a global centre of innovation.
The CVCA represents individuals and firms participating in the
venture capital and private equity industry, and seeks to increase
industry awareness through market research and networking
opportunities. CVCA members invest in and mentor Canadian companies
across innovation and growth sectors.
