Financing Madawaska Highlands Observatory


Madawaska Highlands Obserevatory Corp is a forward looking company with a very simple offering: Experience seeing infinity with the most powerful visitors telescopes in the world coupled with the most powerful telescope in Canada.

The company has put together a world class facility with the worlds most powerful visitor telescopes and a LEEDS Platinum visitor centre to match. The facility will host the most powerful telescope in Canada. All under a night sky untouched by artificial light.

Some $4,000,000 of builder financing has been raised thanks to the extremely strong business case and the hard physical asset. We are seeking approximately $1,500,000 in private equity financing to move the project into the construction phase.

From the 90-page business plan with 4-years of research behind it:
80,000 visitors and 200,000 app subscriptions
This could be achieved in year 3.

The facility is expected to draw in visitors from all over the world, and become a major tourist destination in the region and provincial destination. In its total offering the facility is unique in Canada and the USA.

The Madawaska Highlands Observatory will be the only commercially financed and operated observatory in the world. This is made possible by a unique set of circumstance of being a few hours drives to 20 million people, including 50% of the Canadian population, some 80,000- 100,000 annual visitors are expected once fully developed.

The facility will be world class in its offerings and is expected to draw in visitors from all over the world. The backdrop of an extremely spectacular night sky, with state-of-the-art 40" visitor telescopes will permit the best views of the universe that most people will likely see in their lifetime.
