FACIT launches fund to advance Ontario cancer discoveries

Fight Against Cancer Innovation Trust (FACIT) has launched the Prospects Oncology Fund, a pre-seed evergreen fund intended to support oncology discoveries in Ontario. Managed by FACIT, the fund will provide up to $200,000 to help technologies attract seed-stage investment. Opportunities will be sourced within Ontario research institutions and startups. FACIT, established by the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research to commercialize oncology innovations, said the fund will address a capital gap "commonly associated with early-stage research and translational discoveries."
