## About Koan Capital

Koan Capital is a venture capital firm founded in 2022, based in Calgary, Alberta, operating the Koan Agtech Fund, a rolling fund backing early-stage startups improving agriculture and the environment. It sources deals from Western Canada's resource economy, an area underserved by generalist funds.

The firm focuses on pre-seed to seed AgTech startups across crops, livestock, aquaculture, and food technology, aiming to increase agricultural productivity and the overall value of food products.

Notable investments include Picketa Systems, Maia Farms, Brilliant Harvest, and Sami Agtech (a Lapalme Agtech spinout focused on robotic harvesting). Koan's investment approach bridges traditional agricultural industry knowledge with early-stage venture capital, targeting atomized industrial verticals within farming and food production.
