A Great Environment For New Scientific Research
“Venture capital money, particularly for angel investing, the first what would be called six rounds of getting money is difficult, to say the least. Here in Montreal it hasn’t been well-established as, say, our counterparts in Toronto, or of course Silicon Valley that everyone talks about. But that being said, the money that does come in from the government, in terms of grants specific for research, tax benefits for starting companies that are doing basic scientific research, the environment in Montreal is excellent for that. And although there is a lot of paperwork, like there is with things, the money is definitely there to at least get yourself up and running.”
