About CEO Coach Mark MacLeod
Since 1999, I've been the right-hand to high growth tech leaders as CFO, VC and deal maker. I served as CFO for Shopify (NYSE: SHOP) and Freshbooks, experiencing failures, profitable exits, and everything between. As General Partner at Real Ventures, Canada's largest seed fund, my investments delivered the fund's highest returns. I founded SurePath Capital Partners, the leading SMB SaaS investment bank, completing hundreds of millions in transactions.
