Joanne Fedeyko, CEO

I'm a believer of radical generosity and I've built a company around making meaningful connections to help people succeed. 

Previously I was the Executive Director of C100 Association, a nonprofit dedicated to helping Canadian entrepreneurs connect into Silicon Valley, where I built an extensive network across Canada's startup ecosystem along with an influential network in the Valley. 

I am passionate about supporting women in tech and I have formed the Canadian Women’s Network in the Valley to advise female founders and help women in technology roles gain deeper connections into Silicon Valley. 

I grew up along the 59th parallel in Northern Alberta. My career has been everything but a straight line.  I realized that the my "normal", living in the Bay Area since 1999, is not normal outside of the bubble I now call "home" ... but I love it! The pace, the ideas, the excitement, and the urgency that exists here is addictive. And we get shit done. 

I have always enjoyed connecting people and becoming passionate about their purpose, so I'm excited to see where there are synergies.

Let's connect!

Stay tuned as we are always adding passionate endeavors to our repertoire.
