I have 30+ years as a founder, operator, investor, board member and advisor. I have founded/co-founded multiple companies and have dealt with cofounder issues directly. I have invested in individual companies that have achieved $2b in revenue, $1b in profit, $30b in valuation. Plus on the other side of the spectrum, I have seen lots ofdifferent poor behaviour by some investors, founders and lawyers. My value add is: - the ability to quickly filter out the wrong people. - fundraising - strategy - focus - making tough decisions - cashflow planningCurrently investing directly in startups (mainly tech) at all stages and in funds (most asset classes) as an LP globally. I invested early in Supercell (majority acquired by Tencent), Unity Software (NYSE:U), Radiant Entertainment (acquired by Riot Games), Boomlagoon (acquired by Wargaming), Peak (acquired by Hachette Livre), Gameclub (acquired by Take-Two Interactive), Doppio Games (acquired by Fortis). Previously, I cofounded a seed VC firm & was an investment banker at various firms. I have both a HBA & MBA from the Richard Ivey School of Business at University of Western Ontario in Canada.If you message me with a pitch deck link for your company or fund then do not send me a docsend link or anything requesting an email and or password as I will ignore it.

- Bonaverde — Bonaverde is revolutionizing the world of coffee: how it's traded, distributed, roasted and consumed. What was once a space reserved exclusively for large-scale corporations, is now being challenged by this small team from Berlin and their dream of establishing the world's first direct-trade, eCommerce marketplace for green coffee beans.In doing so, they hope to reset the income distribution standards in this commodity business to the benefit of farmers, while delivering consumers a fresher, better tasting coffee.In order to realize thier dream, Bonaverde had to invent the world's first, readily available roast-grind-brew coffee machine - which you can preorder for a limited time off of their website. From green beans to black coffee in under 20 minutes - coffee doesn't get fresher than that. The machine successfully completed several crowdfunidng rounds in early 2014 and is now in the prototyping stage, soon to be released to the market in early 2015. Bonaverde utilizes a high strength cone grinder that reduces grinding time and increases coffee powder consistency and uses the rain shower brewing method to ensure retention of the beans' rich flavors.
