Plaza Ventures is a Toronto-based venture capital firm established in 2008, specializing in a micro-fund model that channels capital from high-net-worth investors into targeted Series A and Series B investments. The firm has a demonstrated history of supporting successful entrepreneurs through multiple funding rounds. Each micro-fund allocates half of its capital to emerging companies with established business models generating over $3 million in annual revenues, focusing on those resilient to economic fluctuations. The remaining funds are reinvested in 4-5 successful ventures from previous investments. While Plaza Ventures identifies as sector agnostic, it has a particular focus and expertise in areas such as enterprise SaaS, location-based services, IoT, Smart City initiatives, digital media, and marketplaces, catering primarily to growth-stage companies in the United States and Canada.
