Angels for Climate Solutions Investing: Smart Capital Into Tech-Enabled Climate Solutions

About

The program, delivered by the Vancouver Economic Commission and TD Bank in partnership with Volition, Foresight Canada, and Spring Activator, undertakes a cohort-based approach to training with two intersecting streams:

  1. Investor Stream: for angel investors looking to make early-stage investments into climate technologies.
  2. Startup Stream: for climate-focused startups looking to fundraise, and will include 1:1 tailored business advising for all participants.

Building on the success of our 2022 Angels for Climate Solutions Program, the 2023 program will provide startups the tools, training, and confidence to develop, deliver on, and effectively communicate their plan to undertake a seed capital raise, and investors the tools and knowledge to confidently assess and select ventures that align with their investment goals.

All participating startups will have access to 6-weeks of Core Investment Training1:1 business advising, and the opportunity to pitch their solutions to the angel investor cohort. The top Top 5 finalists selected by the investors will move on to receive an additional five weeks of tailored training while completing due diligence meetings and preparing to pitch at the program finale for $100,000.
