My venture studio · Sutton, Québec

Regenerate Capital

Active capital from operators who’ve scaled.

Regenerate Capital is the venture studio I founded to bring everything on this site under one roof. It invests in, incubates and accelerates companies in frontier technology — AI, robotics, physical automation, space tech, biotech, digital assets and fintech — and in cash-flowing businesses that anchor their communities. Every cheque comes with an operator who has done the work.

Where the studio works

The Regenerate Syndicate

An invitation-only group of accredited investors, family offices and funds who see the studio’s dealflow and co-invest alongside it — deal by deal, on the same terms, with no fees.

For accredited investors and permitted clients only. Nothing on this site is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security.

My "Why"

We all need our Second Mountain.

01
Mission

Build & grow together.

To cultivate a community of like-minded, growth-minded, high-integrity people — where we hold each other accountable, create real things, and rise together through shared ambition and mutual trust.

02
Vision

Raise critical thinkers, not screen consumers.

A generation of children who develop high awareness, deep curiosity, and independent thought — staying as screen-free as possible through early adolescence, grounded in real experience before the digital world takes hold.
