I am a globalist that lives and breaths international business strategy. I am currently the IBD Analyst for Wesley Clover International-the engine behind the Alacrity Global Program. I am very much interested in IAR beyond enhancing market visibility as the strategic implications for tech Startup’s are great. Industry Analyst relations has become an important part of my role and a strategic aspect that has been incredibly valuable to supporting some of our companies in various stages. I am very much an avocat for IAR as it supplements the analytics function of my role as well as facilitates insightful go-to-market strategies for Startup’s. I strongly believe IAR can speed up growth as well as side step obstacles to failure for smaller tech companies. I have been working with the IIAR to build the IAR Community in Canada and to bring the Startup community into the fold. Please contact via Twitter or LinkedIn for details on IIAR Ottawa Chapter activities.
