Heri Rakotomalala Engineer, Entrepreneur

Heri and his partner Bruno have been amazing partners for the Crowdfunding workshops we have been running for the past few months. Heri's energy, enthusiasm and incredible network have allowed us to meet lots of new entrepreneurs and help them launch amazing projects. I strongly recommend letting Heri be your guide to crowdfunding success.

Heri is a true community leader. Always there to support the Startup scene and all the actors involved. Heri understands what entrpreneurs need better than most. His approach is grass roots and always relevant to making Montreal a great place to build a business.

I have worked with Heri on 2 campaigns for Jolietta thus far - Christmas/Holidays 2012 and Valentine's Day 2013.

Heri is creative, detailed-orientated, focussed, and a pleasure to work with. We came up with a concept for both campaigns; he had a vision and knew exactly what he wanted, and saw it through from start to finish. At the same time, he is flexible, able to think of his feet and quickly remedy a problem or provide alternative solutions.

Heri is a wealth of knowledge, especially when it comes to startups. I have learnt and continue to learn so much from him. He is an invaluable part of the Montreal startup community and I look forward to working with him again.

Heri as been very helpful with MAKEACHAMP.com on a variety of aspects. With his business knowledge he carefully analyzed our marketing strategy and successfully helped us narrow it down to accommodate our limited resources. We were able reach a large portion of our market without wasting resources and time. On the product development aspect of MAKEACHAMP.com he gave us some crucial advice on designing a website specific to our costumer's needs. Heri has been crucial on helping MAKEACHAMP.com get to the point where it is now, we could not have done it without him. Every time we sit down with Heri we feel like we progress couple of months of work! I'd recommend Heri for any type of business help, he is truly a start-up Guru!

Heri was an asset to the Dawson College Entrepreneurship Week organizing committee. His vision and expertise in all that is start-up as well as his extensive network, were invaluable to the success of the very first Eweek. Thank you Heri!
