The pace of technological change, along with the increasing demand for environmental performance, requires more rapid industrial innovation than ever. Yet, internal research and development models struggle to deliver breakthrough ideas, while external entrepreneurs rarely understand the nuances of industry required to develop practical solutions.
Evok is a fund that offers a unique approach to innovation, combining the pace and creativity of a Silicon Valley startup with the experience and insight of industry insiders. We drive innovation by deeply understanding industrial challenges, leveraging a global network of entrepreneurs to find solutions, and providing the investment, mentorship, and market access to accelerate deployment for game changing results.
Through a partnership with Cenovus, Suncor and the BC Cleantech CEO Alliance, we invest in a global portfolio of innovative companies to address the most pressing economic and environmental challenges of the oil and gas industry.
