Fueling Canada’s next generation of founders
First Flight Angels is an early-stage syndicate investing in high-potential Canadian startups that traditional capital overlooks.
We back founders at the moment they need it most — before traction, before hype, before the crowd.
Our mission is simple: help exceptional Canadian founders take flight — with the capital, mentorship, and community to build globally significant companies from Canadian soil.
What we believe
People First
We look for people who were meant to be entrepreneurs. Mission driven, passionate, humble and little crazy.
People who not afraid to make mistakes but are willing to learn from them.
Execution is everything
Ideas aren’t nearly as important
Canada can be better
Its not perfect but we love this country and want to help make it better for everyone. BLAH
Community
This is more about about just investing, its about building a community…
OUR PEOPLE
Our team of professionals believe financial literacy should be accessible to everyone.
