DESCRIPTION:Join us for a presentation by Thomas Park\, the co-founder and 
 lead partner of the BDC Deep Tech Fund\, a VC fund focused on supporting C
 anadian start-ups developing “hard tech” such as quantum computers\, photo
 nics\, fundamental AI and cleantech. The BDC is the Business Development B
 ank of Canada\, a certified B-Corporation that has been serving Canadian b
 usinesses since 1944.\n\nDeep tech\, also known as “tough tech\,” often re
 quires major R&D investment to bring innovations to market. Deep tech star
 tups face higher infrastructure and hiring costs than other tech ventures\
 , such as business-to-business software companies\, and product developmen
 t timelines can be protracted\, putting them at a disadvantage when vying 
 for venture capital. Compared to traditional ventures\, they need patient 
 and sustained financing.\n\nLearn more about BDC's activities in this area
 \, and how your commercial project might secure funding through this excit
 ing opportunity. There will also be a networking cocktail immediately foll
 owing the event.\n\nTo register\, please follow this link.\n
