As Co-Founder and CEO, Peter Hwang led Globalfaces to rapid growth during their first five-and-a-half years, building a organization of more than 1,000 fundraisers across North America, acquiring over 400,000 monthly donors during this period providing charities in excess of $100 million of annual donation revenue. Peter formulated partnerships with several high profile charities, including the SickKids Foundation, Unicef, Plan International, World Vision, the Canadian Cancer Society and the Canadian Red Cross, among others. Globalfaces rapid success and attractive growth trajectory garnered the attention of CPS Capital, a VC and PE firm based out of Vancouver. Peter led their successful sale to CPS Capital after less than 6 years of operations for a mid-eight figure acquisition in June 2018. https://www.nicoyaventures.ca/newstrike-brands daily 0.75 2020-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83cb467e61560273a5b187/1589820892575-TT16D1LK0X6QUTOXIH9I/Newstrike+Brands+5x7.png Newstrike Brands - Newstrike Brands Ltd. We’re driven by our love for cannabis, but our core values make us... up. Status: SOLD Website: https://up.ca/pages/whats-up Overview Founded in 2013, what would ultimately become Newstrike Brands Ltd. began as an idea between two friends, Jay Wilgar and Travis Kanellos. Intrigued at the prospect of cannabis becoming legalized and looking for their next venture, the pair founded Hemisphere Pharmaceuticals (“HPI”) and became one of the first federally licensed cannabis producers in the country in late 2016, securing a boutique production facility in Brantford, Ontario. In May 2017, HPI went public when they completed a reverse takeover of Newstrike Resources Ltd., a TSX-V listed company. Remaining focused on developing a suite of adult-use brands for the Canadian market, Newstrike partnered with the iconic Canadian band, The Tragically Hip, and brought on Peter Hwang to help lead commercialization efforts, later launching their flagship brand, Up Cannabis. The combination of well-known brands, state-of-the-art production facilities, broad distribution networks and a talented workforce attracted the attention of Hexo Corp., who ultimately acquired Newstrike in an all-stock deal for $346 million in May of 2019. https://www.nicoyaventures.ca/aim-powergen daily 0.75 2020-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83cb467e61560273a5b187/1589822344191-PW4D4ZIZQ1S1BR5XHCDE/AIM+Powergen+5x7.png AIM Powergen - AIM PowerGen Status: SOLD Overview Upon graduating from university in 2001, and after seeing the breadth of wind turbines in Europe during his formative years, Jay spent a year developing a comprehensive, scalable business model for the production of wind turbines in Ontario, later founding AIM PowerGen Corp. Over the remainder of the 2000’s, Jay and the team he built at AIM progressed from the start-up stage to becoming a leading independent wind farm developer across Canada, with operations primarily in Ontario but also Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. AIM ultimately built up a portfolio of wind farms producing 40 MW of power in 2009, approximately 2% of the aggregate Canadian capacity, and was set to double to 80 MW in 2010. Furthermore, AIM had secured a pipeline of wind turbines for a staggering 1,200 MW across Canada. Around that time, AIM had garnered the attention of British Power International PLC (now apart of the NG Bailey Group as of early 2018), who ultimately acquired them in an all-cash deal for $119 million towards the end of 2009. https://www.nicoyaventures.ca/proven-results daily 0.75 2020-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83cb467e61560273a5b187/1593187994444-J2XPX7AF23UOIFWF1Q67/Newstrike+Brands+logo.jpg Proven Results https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83cb467e61560273a5b187/1593188182466-JG9D0UFD2H16VJF8UNOA/AIM+Powergen+logo.jpg Proven Results https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83cb467e61560273a5b187/1593187969347-TY8224ASVX8DGK8I3BEA/globalfaces+direct+logo.jpg Proven Results
