A new report from BDC Capital is sounding the alarm on the state of venture capital in Canada. The **2025 Canada’s Venture Capital Landscape** report highlights a pressing need for increased domestic investment to fuel innovation and reduce the country’s reliance on international markets.

The report reveals concerning trends, particularly at the **seed stage**, where year-over-year investment has sharply declined. The data paints a troubling picture for **Atlantic Canada**, a region historically undercapitalized in the venture space—making the call for action even more urgent.

> *“This is a key moment for the Canadian ecosystem to rise to the challenge and direct more capital towards domestic innovation,”* the report states.

As Canada seeks to remain globally competitive in tech and innovation, the message is clear: it is time for investors to step up and support homegrown talent.
