Additionally the Niagara Enterprise Agency provides administrative and promotional support to the Niagara Growth Fund, a separately incorporated community-sponsored venture capital fund (created with the assistance of the Province of Ontario’s Community-Sponsored Business Investment Fund program---CSBIF.) The community sponsor for this fund is the Regional Municipality of Niagara and a representative of the sponsor sits on the Board of Directors of the Niagara Growth Fund. http://www.niagara-growth-fund.com
