Pique Ventures

Pique Ventures is a Vancouver, British Columbia-based impact investment firm founded in 2012 by Bonnie Foley-Wong, a chartered accountant and CFA charterholder who has been a longtime advocate for impact investing. Pique pioneered the concept of 'Integrated Investing' — a methodology for making mindful investment decisions that balance financial, social, and systemic impact. In 2014, the firm launched the Pique Fund, structured as a British Columbia Venture Capital Corporation and focused explicitly on leadership diversity in technology. The Pique Fund raised over CAD 6 million of public- and private-sector capital from 41 investors, 32 of whom are women — representing roughly 75% of committed capital. The fund invested in 7 women-founded BC-based technology ventures at seed and Series A stages across fintech, healthcare, SaaS, and consumer sectors. Notable portfolio companies include Beanworks (accounts payable automation, with Pique co-investing in a $10.1 million Series B led by FINTOP Capital and BDC Capital's Women in Technology Venture Fund), ePACT Network (emergency information sharing), FoodMesh (online marketplace for surplus food), and Careteam (care coordination software). Pique's investment philosophy treats diversity not as a social obligation but as a return-generating signal: the firm's thesis holds that women-led and gender-mixed teams demonstrably outperform across key financial metrics. Bonnie Foley-Wong remains the firm's primary voice on impact-investing thought leadership and has extended the Pique brand into advisory and educational work following the full deployment of its primary fund.
