Word of welcome

Dear Internet users:

Welcome to the FIER Partners, L.P. Web site.
 
FIER Partners is a limited partnership (L.P.) that supports the creation of investment development funds and helps finance development projects.

FIER Partners is thus an active contributor to the mission of FIER (Fonds d'intervention économique régional or regional economic intervention funds) program, which is designed to increase the amount of venture capital available in every region of Québec as quickly as possible. The initial capitalization is provided by Investissement Québec and three tax-advantaged funds: the Solidarity Fund QFL, Capital régional et coopératif Desjardins and Fondaction CSN.

The limited partnership has an investment budget of $180 million, of which $40 million will be invested as venture capital in development projects and $140 million will be injected as equity capital in investment funds in partnership with other investors.

With other investors as well as the private sector's participation, the contribution of FIER Partners will have a genuine leverage effect, enabling the injection of $400 million in venture capital into Québec's economy.

Whether you are a fund manager, business leader or representative of a group of companies, FIER Partners offers a partnership with significant potential. Be sure to visit the Web site to see whether your project's parameters correspond to what we have to offer.

Please do not hesitate to contact me. I will be pleased to answer your questions concerning FIER Partners.

Enjoy your visit to our site.
