Neil Henderson

I care deeply about Victoria's local startup ecosystem and its entrepreneurs and the Cindicates offer a great avenue through which I can provide support! It also helps that investments are VCC eligible, and can be sheltered in an RRSP if you so choose. For someone dipping their feet into angel investing, it's a great start!
