The strength of the network lies in its collective expertise.
We stand at the forefront of a community of 4000+ innovators committed to sustainable products that are better for people, animals and the planet. We are proud to be a trusted partner to each member of this incredible ecosystem.
Who do we partner with?
NPC values its relationship with both Canadian and international investors looking for early-stage, high-potential investment opportunities that are better for people, animals and the planet. This is a symbiotic relationship. We provide extensive advice and support to Canadian companies, resulting in a pipeline of interesting Canadian companies that we have helped to develop and de-risk into viable investment opportunities. In turn, we look for investors who can provide market insight, feedback, connections and of course capital to ensure these high-potential companies achieve their full potential.
NPC can also connect investors with Nàdarra Ventures, a $50M private investment fund, launched from the foundational work done by NPC and its initial 13 investments.
We work with a broad range of investors, from individual angels, to provincial investment agencies, to large private equity firms.
NPC engages with forward-thinking Canadian and international corporations seeking innovative, sustainable products and technologies to meet growing consumer demand. We seek symbiotic partnerships. We provide a pipeline of cutting-edge technologies poised for market disruption. In turn, we seek corporate partners who contribute industry expertise, market intelligence, distribution and valuable networks. This synergy ensures that high-potential, innovative solutions can scale effectively, meeting evolving consumer needs and helping you maintain a competitive edge in the global marketplace.
Our network of 4000+ has a variety of business needs. We are always eager to speak to reliable and responsible companies that can help this community thrive. If you have a service, expertise, resource or facility that might add value, we’d love to hear from you.
NPC is a trusted partner of the Government of Canada, generating phenomenal returns on their investment.
Currently, the Government of Canada invests in NPC through the Strategic Innovation Fund administered through the Department of Innovation Science and Economic Development.
NPC also partners with provincial departments and agencies to augment regional efforts and expertise around bio-based innovation.
“Our collaboration with NPC has been an important facet of our company’s success. Early investment from NPC allowed us to initiate regulatory work saving months on our timelines and positioned us favourably as we raised further capital, of which NPC was also an important partner.“
