Foresight Announces Partnership with Eunike Ventures to Accelerate Growth of Cleantech Ventures in the Energy Sector

This partnership with Foresight marks Eunike’s formal entry into the Canadian market. Eunike will bring their existing global partnership platform and established processes, due diligence, and de-risking methodologies for technology adoption in the Energy industry.

Foresight is Canada’s cleantech ecosystem accelerator. Through strategic collaborations like this, Foresight brings partners together to identify, commercialize, and adopt the clean technologies needed to address today’s most urgent climate challenges.

As strategic partners, Foresight and Eunike Ventures will build upon the strengths of their respective organizations, further enabling a complete innovative stream that is ‘best in class’. This partnership also establishes a bi-lateral technology bridge between the two countries enabling shared technology sourcing, cross-fertilization of opportunities, learnings from industry peers, and increased foreign direct investment with the goal of accelerating and increasing adoption across the industry.

This new partnership includes collaborating on events supporting the energy sector. Foresight is currently working with Eunike Ventures and the Alberta Clean Tech Industry Alliance (ACTia) on two events in February focused on hydrogen (H2) and carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS). This invitation-only virtual event series will share “on the ground” deployment experience of H2 and CCUS technology and connect Western Canadian cleantech ventures with global investors and corporate partners.

“We welcome the opportunity to partner with Eunike Ventures, who bring deep connections and expertise in the New Energy economy” said Jeanette Jackson, CEO of Foresight. “We are confident that by working together, we can move the dial with cleantech solutions in this important sector.”

“Partnering with Foresight Cleantech was a naturally strategic fit with Eunike’s value proposition and existing collaboration platform” said Amy Henry, CEO of Eunike Ventures. “Foresight’s thought leadership and program development, along with co-partnering with industry, is how working together we will extend the runway for startups, increase adoption, and provide the increased global connectivity that is required for true success.”
