About Novacap

It's not just about making investments... It's about building world-class companies.


Novacap is one of Canada's leading private equity firms. Since 1981, our partnership approach has helped companies accelerate their growth and maximize their value. At Novacap, it's about more than just an investment; it's about building world-class companies. Our highly-experienced, multifunctional team understands the operational and financial challenges faced by today's organizations. We provide active support, deep operational expertise and growth capital to help companies with strategic competitive advantages realize their full potential. Novacap is organized in two functional groups, each with its own team focused on building a strong portfolio in a given market sector: Novacap Industries invests in middle market companies within traditional industries that have the potential to become world leaders by developing their market, technology and operations or through industry consolidation; Novacap Technologies invests in companies focusing on growth and market leadership in the Information and Communication Technologies sector. It partners with first-rate management teams and actively works with them to build leading organizations in their markets. While we believe the success of our portfolio companies speaks for itself, it is always an honor to receive recognition from our peers. Novacap is the only firm to have won the Canadian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association's "Deal of the Year Award" twice. In 2000, we won for our Venture Capital investment in InnoMediaLogic Inc. Then, in 2005, Novacap won again in the Private Equity category for its investment in Santé Naturelle A.G. Ltd.
