Emerging and mid-market technology and life sciences companies in Canada are in line for a shot in the arm from specialty finance company MMV Financial Inc. It plans to invest its initial capitalization of $300-million as debt financing for the two sectors. The capital is coming from Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, Conning Capital Partners of Hartford, Conn., and Wells Fargo Foothill, an arm of Wells Fargo & Co. Toronto-based MMV said it will target 1,400-plus privately held and 500-plus publicly traded companies in the two sectors.
