The Ontario Capital Growth Corporation (OCGC) is pleased to announce that it has closed its first angel co-investment under the Ontario Emerging Technologies Fund.

OCGC has co-invested in TeloIP Inc., a Toronto-based technology firm that creates and sells network convergence solutions. Their breakthrough technology enables voice, data, and video to work simultaneously over the same infrastructure, while seamlessly aggregating and accelerating any connection, from any carrier.
