SENATOR'S STATEMENT - COMMUNITECH INVESTMENT FUND
Senator Colin Deacon rises in the Chamber to celebrate a recent announcement of a $200M, all-Canadian, investment fund launched by Communitech. Canada has the 2nd largest and fastest-growing innovation cluster globally, but loses home-grown companies to the United States due to limited Canadian investment & procurement. Senator Deacon stresses the importance of global Canadian tech leaders like Communitech, who are supporting Canadian founders with the capital needed to scale, grow and become globally competitive winners.
