[Why Tall Grass Ventures?]

Canadian Roots with Global Reach.

Canada has been a leader in agriculture and food for generations. By building a leading agrifood tech investment firm, Tall Grass Ventures is investing in Canada's continued role as a powerhouse in an evolving food economy.

Economic Catalysts.

We believe collaboration is a powerful tool and that nobody has the market cornered on good ideas.  That’s why Tall Grass Ventures builds on our purposely curated ecosystem of partners and resources to connect portfolio companies with the support they need for sustainable, long-term success. We believe that businesses and their leaders must constantly be looking at ways to do things a little better, gain an edge, provide a greater return, and make a more significant impact.  We view our ability to add value to our portfolio company’s business through our ecosystem as being as important as economics. That simple.
