Our team advised Femtum Inc. in connection with an initial closing completed on March 3, 2026, as well as an additional closing completed on March 16, 2026, for a total financing of approximately C$16 million.
This financing round was led by BDC Capital, who contributed approximately C$6 million as the lead investor, alongside Fonds de solidarité FTQ, Cathay Venture Inc., i4 Capital, Boreal Ventures, Quantacet, Hamamatsu Ventures and Eurêka, reflecting strong institutional and strategic investor interest in Femtum’s value proposition.
