Welcome to Season 2, episode 2 of Backstage Pass, the podcast by Front Row Ventures taking you behind the scenes into Canada’s tech ecosystem and its success stories.

Today, we’re happy to have Kim Furlong.
Kim is the CEO of the Canadian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association--the CVCA. The CVCA is an organization that represents Canada’s private capital ecosystem. They speak to governments and create opportunities to voice the most pressing issues in the Canadian private capital landscape.

Prior to the CVCA, she spent five years in the Canadian government and a decade at Amgen as VP of Federal Government Affairs. She graduated from McGill University with a Bachelor in American History, and from Carleton with a Master of International Trade and Finance.

In this episode, we’ll cover all of that and more. So, without further ado, here’s Kim Furlong.
