Testimonials

Testimonials

I've known Stewart for about 4 years. We've worked on a couple of deals together, and I've recommended him to entrepreneurs that can benefit from his knowledge and abilities. Stewart has broad and deep knowledge of the early stage venture process, and can very quickly assess and summarize a startup's situation, needs and path forward. He is an excellent communicator and coach who can support his viewpoint with well-considered data drawing on the facts and his experience. Words that come to mind to describe Stewart include collaborative, trustworthy, smart and persistent. He's also a really nice person to be around.
