Founder & CEO
Our resident movie buff, he has a soft spot for the 1988 Bette Midler classic, Beaches. If that isn’t enough to convince you of his high-level management skills, he also has played key roles in the success of Canadian tech pioneers such as MKS, Delrina, and OpenText. While there, he launched products like the first wireless internet access package, first commercial search engine for the web, and the first web-based intranet application. In 2004, he became the CIO of the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI). There, he developed a technology that would later become the basis of Igloo. When your first client is the United Nations, you better believe things are gonna be serious.

VP, Finance
In his free time, Mark cycles long distances, does duathlons, and makes us question exactly how in shape we think we are. However, we’re really happy to have him around, as he manages the money for Igloo. He is a chartered accountant, and has worked in the Canadian and U.S. markets, both for large companies and early-stage technology start-ups. We’re kind of a mix of both of those right now, so he’s a perfect fit.
