Triptyq Capital

General Partners Charles Beaudry and Hubert Blanquefort jointly lead all investment decisions. The firm operates a flat partnership structure, with both GPs directly involved in sourcing, due diligence, and board-level portfolio support. No separate investment committee or external advisors are publicly disclosed.

Triptyq sources heavily from Montreal's AI research ecosystem — particularly spinouts from Mila and local universities — as well as from the creative-industry networks of its founding partners. The firm's SODEC partnership, announced in 2024, formalized a pipeline through Quebec's cultural sector, connecting AI founders with government-backed media and arts organizations.

Triptyq operates as a traditional venture capital firm raising third-party capital, not as a family office. The firm deploys from a dedicated early-stage fund vehicle and reports to external limited partners. Its partnership structure is consistent with a conventional VC manager rather than an entity managing a single family's wealth.

Triptyq does not publicly publish an exclusion list, but its portfolio and stated mandate indicate no presence in deep tech hardware, fintech, blockchain, or climate-focused verticals. The firm concentrates exclusively on applied AI within healthcare diagnostics, creative tools for music and media, and enterprise SaaS — leaving capital-intensive or heavily regulated sectors outside its scope.

The firm invests at pre-seed, seed, and Series A stages, with initial cheques typically between C$250,000 and C$1.5 million. Triptyq aims to be the first institutional capital in a round, often leading or co-leading deals before US investors enter. The firm does not operate a growth-stage vehicle or participate in later-stage syndicates.

Triptyq deploys exclusively through direct equity investments in operating companies. The firm does not act as a fund-of-funds, nor does it publicly commit capital to other venture managers. Its structure is limited to direct startup investing from its own fund vehicle.

The 2024 partnership with SODEC, Quebec's cultural-enterprise development agency, created a structured program through which Triptyq portfolio companies gain access to Quebec's network of public arts and media institutions. The arrangement provides non-dilutive pathways for founders to pilot AI products in real-world creative settings — from music production to broadcast — and serves as a unique sourcing and validation channel distinct from standard accelerator models.
