Saqib Qureshi
Markham, Canada
I am an entrepreneur, early stage investor and real estate developer with over 20 years experience in 3 continents, multiple sectors and functions, encompassing the private, public and non-profit sectors. I enjoy helping younger people do really well, and have invested in several businesses which were begun by mentees. I also like peanut butter. In small doses.
What I offer

Entrepreneurship - experience and mentoring
I've started several businesses, and invested in several start-ups in the last dozen years through my firm, Building Capital Inc.
In doing so, I've learned a thing or two about what entrepreneurship entails and some of the issues in early stage businesses.

a) Alignment of interests between investor and investee management
b) Favorable strategic big picture
c) Strong technical competence
d) Honesty
Experiences

Very broad and eclectic
I've worked in massive as well as tiny businesses, the public and private sectors... as well as in academia and non-profits. To top that, I've lived in three continents. That experience spans many sectors.
