We believe that innovative business models will be the defining competitive battleground of the next decade and that deep and narrow specialization is what clients require from their professional service providers.

Management Consulting

Critical Path Group is the only integrated professional management consulting firm in Canada dedicated exclusively to the technology industries – tech companies, their investors, and the government and innovation sector organizations that fuel the technology economy.

We advise national and regional governments, technology transfer organizations and leading companies within the technology commercialization arena. Each year we accept a select number of advisory, strategic planning, and project management engagements.

Our professional management consulting services include:

  • Strategic Planning & Investor Grade Business Planning
  • Technology Commercialization Studies & Analysis
  • Feasibility Studies
  • Professional Management of Venture Forums & Technology Showcase Events
  • Economic Development Projects
  • Investment Attraction & Business Retention Initiatives

Executive Search

Organizations ultimately consist of only two assets - people and corporate knowledge. World class people are expensive. They are expensive to source and retain. They are even more expensive to be without. "Pay now or pay later" is a well understood reality in the ever escalating war for talent.

For investors, one A-player can mean the difference between a successful exit and no exit for a portfolio company. Critical Path Group's retained executive search practice accepts a limited number of mandates. We are focused on senior level searches, all exclusively within the technology industries. We do not dilute our execution capacity by undertaking search mandates for middle management or technical positions.

Applying a proven practice from the venture capital industry, our extended team includes two limited Venture Partners who are permanently located in Silicon Valley. They provide a daily presence in Silicon Valley in order to conduct front end screening of search candidates and facilitate targeted introductions when required.

Whether you need to build fulfillment capability, scale up your operations, build a world class sales team or enhance distribution channels, timely recruitment of executive talent is a CEO and board's most critical task.
