Toronto Stock Exchange & TSX Venture ExchangeUnder the TMX Group parent company, Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) provide a unique listing and financing opportunity ($5M to $100M) for companies around the world, including in the United States. As the Head of Texas and Southern United States Capital Formation and Business Development, I am responsible for promoting TSXV and TSX as an exit and liquidity path for VC and family offices for US companies with $5mm+ in revenues and market caps below $200M. Listing on TSXV & TSX provides access to institutional investors and analyst coverage unlikely for small cap companies on the US markets.TSX Venture Exchange is the only regulated public venture capital market in the world and is an alternative to B-D round funding for companies $5M to $30M in revenues looking to access growth capital. With right-sized regulation, access to a robust retail investor market and follow-on financings, and unique listing structures, TSXV can be a great stepping stone to graduating to TSX and eventually interlisting on a US exchange.+130 US companies companies have successfully raised capital via TSX and TSXV. If you are a founder of a US company or a VC of a promising portfolio company, I would be happy to assist in exploring TSX and TSXV and the various offerings including the bought deal concept, SPACs, and the unique Capital Pool Company (CPC) structure.
