Our latest Insights Podcast features a conversation with Peter MacAskill, the CEO of Invest Nova Scotia. Invest Nova Scotia is the new provincial agency that emerged from the merger of Innovacorp and Nova Scotia Business Inc. Our conversation focuses on a number of Invest Nova Scotia’s principal activities, including its Start-Up Investment Fund, a venture fund with investments of $65 million to date and $100 million available for new opportunities. Invest NS is focused on the clean tech, ocean tech, ag tech, life sciences and IT sectors. We also discuss its Innovation Rebate Program for capital investments to improve productivity, a fund to provide a 25% contribution up to a $15 million capital investment, and its accelerator programs and incubation services. Invest Nova Scotia is working closely with Dal’s Creative destruction Labs and COVE, both previous guests on the podcast.
