Work funded by the Foundation is published open-access in its journal of record, with the editorial walk-through hosted here for readers who want the structure before the article. One paper filed, more in train.
A province-level account of Canadian venture-capital concentration and its co-movement with firm survival and patent activity. Documents the distribution; resists the causal claim. Reads as one half of the work the Foundation is funding into existence — the half that maps what is there before the half that asks why.
The first paper documents the geography of risk capital. The next should examine whether the institutions that bridge it — designated institutions, accelerators, lab-to-market hubs — actually move firms across the distribution, or whether they reinforce the concentrations that already hold. The Foundation is interested in the second question; it is the harder one to answer.
Research grant administration is recorded in the Foundation's Service Register. This page lists only the articles.
