Who We Are
Canico has provided strategic consulting services to tech companies of all sizes since 2015. Through this experience, we discovered that our capabilities and network can also help bring together promising technology companies and select investors to accelerate growth, optimize operations, and maximize returns.
​
We are strategic advisors to tech executives, supported by a fast-growing international collective of networked specialists and investors, each bringing expertise, experience, and connections that can be applied to your unique situation and goals. Headed by CEO and Founder, Gil Eiges, we are rooted in the startup nation, Israel where we cover Europe, and from Toronto, where we cover North America.
Our services for Founders help guide executives from strategy to funding with “roll-up-the-sleeves” hands-on operating help. We invest or support investors only where we know we can make a difference in bettering returns.
At Canico, we’re passionate about business, people, technology, and the intersection of all three. Together with our partners, we turn entrepreneurship dreams and investor goals into practical strategies that make them a reality.
