Promoting Agri-Based Investment Opportunities
Important Notices
The next Agri-Investment Symposium will be held on June 27 in Toronto, Ontario. Now known as the Agri-Investment Forum, the symposium will continue to bring agri-businesses together with potential investors through the industry-leadership of Critical Path Group.
Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada is pleased to have founded and supported this initiative in its early stages and is confident in the greater role industry-leadership will play in agriculture sector innovation. For more information on the upcoming forum, please visit the Critical Path Group website.

The Promoting Agri-Based Investment Opportunities initiative supports a series of national events to bring agri-businesses together with potential investors to:
- attract private sector investment to support the development and commercialization of new agri-practices, products and processes;
- provide a better understanding of risks and opportunities among both entrepreneurs and potential investors; and
- share information about opportunities and challenges in agri-based business ventures.
Agri-entrepreneurs will have an opportunity to present their new products, practices and processes to a targeted audience of private investors.
The Agri-Investment Symposia are delivered through the Promoting Agri-Based Investment Opportunities intiative of the Growing Canadian Agri-Innovations Program under Growing Forward.
