Thank you for the question.
We are doing a number of things to increase the amount of private sector investment that's coming to Nova Scotia in particular. One of the things that we've had for four years running now is the Atlantic Venture Forum, which is held once a year in June. As part of that, we'll have a number of companies that will make a pitch, an elevator pitch, with their product or service. They'll give a quick overview. As part of the Atlantic Venture Forum, we invite angel investors and venture capitalists from several different areas—not just from Canada, but beyond—to be in the room. They come there to see what kinds of companies there are in Nova Scotia, and not just in Nova Scotia, but throughout the Atlantic region.
They're there to see some of the opportunities that we might consider making an investment in. We're not directly supporting those venture capital or angel investor companies. They're coming on their own because they're looking for new opportunities. It might be that in some cases we may have an investment in one or more of those companies, but the investors are there because they've seen the product or the service and they say yes, that's something they're willing to make an investment in.
