Our Story

Founded in 2017 in St. Catharines (Ontario), Trinity Capital International (TCI) was born as a subsidiary of Trinity Capital, a Colombian business group created in 2007, which has investments in five strategic sectors of the economy. Through its portfolio, Trinity Capital generates over 4,000 jobs in Colombia.

At Trinity Capital International (TCI) we are proud to belong to Niagara. In this region, we started our operation, and from here, we led investments in different parts of the country and the world. Today we have investments in companies based in Canada, the United States, and Australia.

Our corporate governance has established clear investment criteria focused on different strategic economic sectors, identified by our Investment Committee as those with the greatest potential for growth and scaling.

Family Values

Our business values are the same that we promote within our family. From Trinity Capital International we base our corporate governance, and our investment criteria, on ethics, respect, transparency and accountability. Under these principles, we promote a Permanent Awareness to Opportunities (PAO) culture. We are looking for business ideas with a good perspective on profitability to bring growth and diversification to our portfolio. We seek to establish lasting relationships with our partners, based on trust and mutual respect.

Social Responsability

Trinity Capital International works for Niagara’s welfare. All our investments seek to add value to our community, impacting employment and improving the quality of life of those living in the region. In addition, we carry out specific activities to promote entrepreneurship and innovation.

As part of our social responsibility commitment, we work hand in hand with those providing support to the future Niagara entrepreneurs. We support specific initiatives from local governments, business incubators and angel investor groups at a regional level, working in pro of future entrepreneurs in the region.

Trinity Capital Community Award

As a way to give back to the community, we have created the Trinity Capital Community Award. This award seeks to recognize and grant with a monetary incentive those businesses located in Niagara, that through innovation and entrepreneurship are impacting our community.

Through an independent committee, integrated by different community actors, we select and recognize the best business ideas. The selection process is based on three principles, which are the same that we apply while making our investment decisions: innovation, related to the contribution made to solve an existing problem or improve the quality of life in our community; sustainability, the capacity to last in time and promotes good practices; and people, the person (s) leading and working on the business.
