A BIPOC client wished to purchase a major sports team - Ottawa Senators. The client did not fully understand the land claim issues nor the equity opportunities related to Indigenous Investment. Within days of coming onboard, we constructed the most diverse bid to date for National Hockey League Ownership. Stakeholders included: Dragons Den, Multiple First Nations, and Neko Sparks Group.
Result of the engagement:
Kitigan Zibi Anashbeg 8 figure equity investment
Six Nations of the Grand River 8 Figure Investment
Land Claim Issues were mitigated
Media and Social Media Reputation Increased leading to invitation from Michael Andlauer (winning bidder) inviting some of my First Nation investors into his bid.
