Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at Thrive Platform Venture Fund

BDC recently launched its $500 million Thrive Venture Fund and Lab for Women. Building on the success of BDC Capital’s Women in Technology (WIT) Venture Fund, launched in 2017, Thrive will be the largest investment platform of its kind in the world, supporting Canadian women-led businesses for them to grow and have a lasting impact on the economy.

The Thrive platform is comprised of three distinct components, providing a comprehensive approach to addressing barriers faced by women, be it through direct early-stage investment, strategic investment in women-led and focused funds, or emerging models for providing equity investments for women-led businesses in the earliest stages of development, all while continuing to develop a more robust and sustainable ecosystem for all.

Our platform is reimagining entrepreneurship in Canada by seeking to partner with visionary, disruptive women entrepreneurs for the long term, while growing their businesses in greater numbers than ever before.

A platform to accelerate women’s journeys

It’s simply not enough to have more women starting businesses – it’s vital to Canada’s economy that women in tech entrepreneurs have access to everything they need for their business to ‘’thrive’’. This is exactly what our platform has been designed to do. You’ve got the vision, and we’re here with you to realize it.
