The Genesis Centre is changing the name of its microfund, established in 2019 to seed early stage ventures, to the Nasdaq Genesis Microfund.
The $1 million (US) donated to the Genesis Centre by Nasdaq last year will be used to replenish the Genesis Centre’s existing microfund.
Interim Head of Anti-Financial Crime with Nasdaq, and co-founder of Verafin says they’re thankful to be able to support the next generation of entrepreneurs and investing in local start-ups fosters greater innovation, and strengthens the province’s economy.
