Callais Capital has been awarded a $10 million matching grant from the state of Louisiana and the U.S. Small Business Credit Initiative to participate in a statewide program supporting entrepreneurs and small businesses. The funds will act as an extension to our Callais Capital Ventures Fund III and dedicated to investing in a diverse selection of highly scalable, tech-enabled startups across the entire state.
At Callais Capital, we have an extreme pride in our home state and believe that the SSBCI program will have an enormous impact on the Louisiana startup ecosystem, reaching across parish lines. As one of the leading early-stage investors in the state, we also acknowledge a substantial economic opportunity that keeps Louisiana competitive against other traditional innovation hubs.
