Summerhill Venture Partners has created a unique value proposition and differentiation based on its relationship with BCE. The Summerhill Venture Partners team has forged strong and long standing relationships with the decision makers and visionaries within the BCE operating companies. This proprietary access to a world class carrier and IT company has become a powerful asset for deal sourcing, due diligence assistance, and value creation in our investee companies. Our relationships within the BCE family span the entire spectrum of the operating companies and range from relationships with the CEO and his senior management team to vice-presidents and directors.

For our portfolio companies, we act as a catalyst inside the BCE family and other carriers where we have developed relationships. We have the ability to get representatives of our investee companies in front of the appropriate senior management in Bell Canada to achieve their objectives, be it to get into a lab to test their products in a carrier environment, create a channel to market, become a customer, obtain feedback and validation on their product or service, or obtain introductions into key suppliers or partners of Bell Canada worldwide.
