Quantum Valley Investments (QVI)

Levity aside Mike's vision, money and hard work made possible not only BlackBerry but also and more importantly Perimeter Institute and Institute for Quantum Computing. The latter two will be his more enduring legacies.

Waterloo Region and Canada owe Mike a huge debt of gratitude.

And remember that Jim (and Heidi) Balsillie's $5 million donation to Grand River Hospital enabled them to redevelop/build the Grand River Regional Cancer Centre.  It's a top of the line, warm and welcoming place for cancer patients and their families. I know this from personal experience.
