Sponsoring my MBA. Getting an operator embedded in your work.
I'm offering 12 months of embedded operator work in exchange for direct sponsorship of my Schulich MBA. Payment goes directly to York University.
What you get: This isn't a donation. It's a service exchange.
In return for your sponsorship I embed into your workflow: research, strategy, ecosystem scouting, intuition, and signal-picking, bespoke to what you actually need. We design the scope together based on your contribution level.
I bring 12 years of operating inside systems most investors only read about. A Pakistan and US lens. A radar for non-obvious founders and ideas. An operator's nose for what breaks before it breaks.
Contribution levels:
$500 — 1 week (24 hours) One week embedded. We scope the work together.
$1,000 — 2 weeks (48 hours) Two weeks embedded. Research, strategy, scouting — whatever moves the needle for you.
$5,000 — 6 weeks (144 hours) Six weeks embedded. Deeper engagement, real deliverables.
$10,000 — 3 months (288 hours) Three months as your operator intelligence layer.
$50,000 — 12 months (1,152 hours) A full year embedded. Research, strategy, scouting, ecosystem signal from inside Schulich and the Canadian VC world as I build there. We build something together.
All engagements are bespoke. Tell me what you're trying to solve. I'll tell you honestly whether I can help. We design the work together.
