GRV invests in outliers bringing blockchain to fintech in Europe and beyond.

Golden Ventures

Golden Ventures is a leading seed-stage venture capital fund, based in Toronto and investing across North America.

We’re here to support founders who are building the future. It is our job to take big risks on the world’s most talented, driven and resilient founding teams who want to change the world.

We believe technology is not an industry. It transcends conventional categories and touches every facet of life, improving the world as we know it. People will find new ways to make things simpler, faster, cheaper, and smarter.

It is for this reason that we invest across sectors, trusting a founder’s ability to teach us what is on the horizon and deliberately leverage our mentorship and diverse network to their advantage.

It is also why we focus exclusively on our superpower, the seed stage. While companies at seed stage might seem messy and imperfect to most, that’s our comfort zone. It’s where we can help you identify what matters — setting milestones and the necessary focus that will help you achieve product-market fit.

The scale (and importance) of the activity in the carbon capture and storage space right now is mind boggling. That's why it's so exciting to see Mangrove Systems being chosen by Summit Carbon Solutions as their core dMRV solution. Summit is THE leader in the space and it's a true testament to the quality of solution that Brandon Vlaar, Evan Little, and their whole team have brought to market 🚀

First event in Montreal? ✅ 
Looking to do more.

Last week, we hosted a data-driven panel discussion with Peter Walker (Head of Data Insights at Carta) and Calvin Leung (Partner at Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP) to answer the founders' burning fundraising questions. 

We discussed topics such as what is driving valuations, how early-stage startups construct their rounds, what questions founders should ask VCs, how much equity to give your first ten hires, and so much more. 

Our goal with every event is to bring together smart people building cool things, and to leave them with tangible takeaways. Thank you to Peter and Calvin for joining us and sharing your insights! 

A special thank you to our sponsors, Osler, Carta, and Sigma Software Group, who make events like this possible.

Connecting our founders to incredible people is at the heart of what we do.

Whether it be investors, seasoned operators, or other founders, we know that meaningful connections lead to outsized returns.

That's why we created Camp Golden – an all-day event where we set out to do just that.

We brought our founders, select downstream investors, and seasoned operators to the Toronto Island for a day of speed dating, curated roundtable discussions, and a keynote from industry titans.

One of the fund's favourite things to do is bring together the ecosystem and showcase incredible Canadian talent. We were lucky to have people fly in from all over North America (and the world) to attend this inaugural event.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and a special thank you to the Executives who led the incredible roundtable discussions: Farhan Thawar (How to Build World-Class Engineering Teams), Nilam Ganenthiran (The Future of Vertical SaaS), Anish Acharya & Olivia Moore (Unlocking New Opportunities in Consumer Powered by AI), Andrew D'Souza (Startups & Corp Dev), Imtiaz Jaffer (Selling into Enterprise), Hana Abaza (Revenue Marketing), Amar Varma & Gary Marshall (Negotiating and Structuring Deals).

Thank you to our sponsors who make events like this possible: Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, Google, and Mantle
