TORONTO, Oct. 22, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - Bolstering our expansive startup group, Fasken welcomes Andre Garber as the Director of the Startup and Emerging Company Services group.
"Andre is a recognized leader in the province's technology space," said Martin Denyes, Ontario Regional Managing Partner. "What he has accomplished in such a short amount of time is very impressive. We're excited to have him on board."
Andre spent the last five years, creating and building the Canadian Startup Program for a global law firm. He's been instrumental in helping startups from formation to exit.

Together with Partner Will Shaw, Andre will co-lead Fasken's Startup and Emerging Company Services group in Ontario, and will play a national role for the team as well.
This group works with companies from the ground up, including their first round of financings, to the development of their product or service, to the commercialization of their technology in Canada and abroad.
