Venture Capital Capabilities

Pender Ventures invests in B2B and health-tech companies with a thesis-driven, series-agnostic approach and a geographical focus on Canadian companies. 

Pender Ventures invests in a concentrated selection of B2B and health-focused technology companies at their inflection point to scale, applying a scale-up framework and diversity influence aimed at driving top-quartile returns and creating tangible impact.

We focus on the stage of the company, rather than an arbitrary series, where we see:

Commercialized product(s) with early customer or partner revenue ($2-$5 million in revenue).

Clear understanding of the drivers of the business.

Capital efficient.

Well-defined path to liquidity.

We also focus on investing in companies that are:

Resilient

Need to have vs. nice to have technology.

Capital Efficient

Strong unit economics and a clear path to profitability.

High ROI Products

Products that increase revenue, decrease costs and/or improve outcomes.
