The firm operates across key innovation hubs including New York, Toronto, Montreal, Austin, Miami, London, Paris, Zurich, the UAE, and Singapore.

In September 2025, White Star Capital announced the first close of its North American Seed Fund at $25 million, with a final target of $50 million. The vehicle is anchored by Fonds de solidarité FTQ, with additional commitments from Capital régional et coopératif Desjardins (CRCD), Fonds québécois d’amorçage Teralys financed by La Caisse, and TD Innovation Partners (TDIP), a division of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The fund is designed to invest at the pre-seed and seed stages, targeting startups across the US and Canada that demonstrate potential for global scale. It will make lead investments between $500,000 and $2 million, while reserving capital for follow-on support through Series A and beyond.
