We have actually attracted a significant amount of investment into our company. We are one of seven of the 40 companies that have obtained over $200 million U.S., and we are the only Canadian horse in the race.
I do believe that we can attract more funding by demonstrating at-home support—that being government funding—and sustained, continued patient capital. Some of the questions we receive from investors include “Where and to what extent is your government support, and how is the government at the table?” I think that would definitely incentivize investment.
Particularly to this committee, I also believe that we need to strengthen our investment in the academic institutions that are pursuing fusion. We've received over 17 letters of support for our recent budget proposal from academic institutions that are extremely excited to build out their fusion capabilities and the unique challenges and spinoff effects that it would produce for the economy. I think a commitment to see and to build talent at home would definitely also attract international investment.
