The Organizations Backing
Atlantic Canada's Builders
North Founders events happen because partners believe in the mission — connecting capital to founders, and founders to each other. These organizations don't just sponsor events. They invest in the ecosystem.
AtlantiCan Growth Partners backs Atlantic Canadian companies with the capital and operational expertise to scale. With deep roots in the region and a mandate focused on growth-stage businesses, they bring more than money — they bring a network built over decades in the Atlantic ecosystem.
CIBC is one of Canada's leading financial institutions and a committed partner to Canadian entrepreneurs. Through dedicated business banking, startup-focused programs, and a team that understands the founder journey, CIBC brings more than a chequing account to the table — they're a strategic financial partner from day one to exit.
Doane Grant Thornton is Atlantic Canada's leading professional services firm, providing audit, tax, and advisory services to entrepreneurs, growth companies, and investors. Their team works at the intersection of finance and entrepreneurship — from SR&ED claims to M&A advisory to helping founders structure their first institutional raise.
Global Bluenosers is an independent, not-for-profit, member-powered community of globally minded Nova Scotians — by birth or by choice. They connect ambitious professionals living beyond the province's borders, and those who have returned, who care deeply about each other and the future of Nova Scotia. From advice and mentorship to open doors and real opportunities, Global Bluenosers fuels what Nova Scotia can become — from anywhere in the world.
