Their thesis, in full
$10M Fund I based in Calgary, exclusively dedicated to pre-seed in B2B SaaS, AI and cloud across Alberta and the Prairies. Founded in 2020 by Bryan Slauko, Jacques LaPointe and Dennis Nerland, Metiquity aims for a portfolio of 20 to 30 companies. The firm is highly active for fast-growing founders looking for a regionally anchored first cheque. The thesis combines tech selectivity with strong Prairie roots, making Metiquity a natural lead for founders who want a local partner with a clear focus on capital efficiency and B2B fundamentals.
