Canadian-Headquartered, Multinational Industrials
Canadian-HQ’d industrial multinationals, typically $100MM to $1B in revenue, operating globally and navigating the transition from founder- or engineer-led growth to – often with PE participation – professionalized strategy, structure, and execution.
