But these stories are not widely known. The Foresight 50 seeks to change that. I call on all  investors to meet the Foresight 50 and lean in to support their growth!” 

The Foresight 50 is supported by Gowling WLG and Clean50. Foresight also received funding support from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP).
