Haskayne ScaleUp Program
Powered by CDL-Rockies
Haskayne ScaleUp, powered by CDL-Rockies, is a mentorship program for executive leadership teams of commercial-stage companies that need to execute against aggressive growth milestones by scaling vision, leadership capabilities, and processes.
ScaleUp enables your portfolio company and executive team to think through and plan for hyper-growth. The program is an opportunity for executive teams to step away from the day-to-day and work with experienced mentors to execute their scale-up agenda. These teams work through identified milestones from their funding round and execute against the funding thesis.
EXECUTIVE TEAMS WILL ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING OUTCOMES
Strategic vision and alignment: Alignment on a well-defined, results-driven, strategic vision for growth and expansion.
Scalable processes: Gaining a clear understanding of the company’s and customer’s unit economics and developing repeatable processes aligned with your strategy. These strategies should be operationalized throughout the program.
Infrastructure of culture: Establishing a cohesive language and team composition ready to drive revenue
Community: Joining an enhanced network of Canadian scaling companies, mentors, partners and community members who will support you through the program and beyond.
We have a team of mentors at ScaleUp that have to work like a team. Companies get a very rich opportunity to learn and there’s nothing more powerful than learning as you’re scaling. And it doesn’t matter how many times you’ve done it before.”
- Mike Broadfoot, Early-stage principal investor & ScaleUp Mentor
“Going from founder-led to team-led, really building a team that can execute and do what they said they would do —that maturity some teams go through is the best predictor of success for a business, and it’s a key element in an investment decision. That’s at the core of what ScaleUp builds.”
