I've taken what I've learned, combined it with global best practices and back it up with real-life examples to serve companies ranging from $5 million to $5 billion in revenue and in a variety of different industries. Through the A100, Techstars and other organizations, I mentor startups in North America, Asia and Europe - and use Product Opportunity Mapping as a guide.As an investor, company builder and mentor, I practice what I preach. As an investor and co-founder, I’m building a portfolio of equity stakes in companies that use artificial intelligence and machine learning to solve business and industrial problems. This includes being a co-founder of both Correct-AI and RoBIM Technologies Inc.Before starting A-Partners Ventures Inc., I was the co-founder and CEO of one of the first internet development companies in Alberta and have held c-level leadership positions with fast growing businesses in the advanced manufacturing, software, real estate and energy sectors.I’m a community leader, corporate director and have been invited to speak at entrepreneurship and technology conferences around the world.
