A Toronto venture and growth equity firm that mainly backs growth-stage Canadian tech companies and later-stage tech-enabled services businesses.
Round13 Capital is a venture and growth equity firm in Toronto, founded in 2013. Bruce Croxon and John Eckert co-founded it because growth-stage digital companies in Canada lacked funding. Its managing partners are Brahm Klar and Wilson Lee.
It says the quality of the team is the leading indicator of success. It expects every company it backs to succeed at scale, not just a small number of winners.
