VU Canada - Ottawa Investor Dinner (During NACO Summit 2026): Hosted By Venture University & VU Venture Partners
Date: Wednesday, May 6, 2026
Time: 7:30 PM
Venture University and VU Venture Partners will be hosting a Ottawa Investor Dinner for up to 30 investors during Ottawa's NACO (National Angel Capital Organization) Summit 2026.
Guests will be limited to investors (Angels, Family Offices, Fund Managers, etc.) and potential strategic partners and marketing channel partners to support the launching and success of VU Canada - bringing VU's Venture Capital Investor Accelerator and investor syndicate to Canada.
During the dinner, we will be sharing a few exciting initiatives we are in the process of launching for expanding both Venture University and VU Venture Partners in Canada in 2026.
We are also looking to engage with additional investors, strategic partners, and marketing channel partners who are aligned and able to support the mission of bringing VU to Canada.
The dinner will start just after the Invest Ottawa and Dentons receptions, so it is easy to come over and settle in.
Seating is limited so please RSVP as early as possible.
