Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and execute a long-term growth strategy for the company, starting from the flagship data center in Gatineau and expanding to key global markets.
  • Oversee real estate transactions, including a sale-leaseback for the flagship property, and secure additional funding through creative financial solutions.
  • Lead the company's capital raising efforts, including securing equity investment from strategic and institutional partners.
  • Manage relationships with government partners to access funding programs and grants designed to support innovative technology startups.
  • Ensure the efficient use of the CEO's $100,000 capital contribution to drive early-stage operations, technology development, and market penetration.
  • Oversee all aspects of business operations, including data center development, customer acquisition, technology infrastructure, and compliance with industry standards.
  • Ensure the company operates with a focus on sustainability, efficiency, and security, meeting or exceeding industry best practices.
Investor Relations & Business Development
  • Build strong relationships with potential investors, government agencies, and key stakeholders to secure funding and strategic partnerships.
  • Drive the business development strategy, identifying key market opportunities and leading the company into new regions.
  • Represent the company at industry events, conferences, and public forums to enhance brand visibility and thought leadership.
