About Sherry Colbourne

Hello! I'm Sherry. I'm a C-suite global executive with experience that spans a broad spectrum of industries. Central to that experience is a passion for innovation. My career has brought me front and centre with critical technology solutions in advanced manufacturing, robotics, EV and autonomous vehicles, software security, cleantech, energy healthcare and aerospace. I'm also a serial tech entrepreneur and startup ecosystem developer.

 

After years of working as a strategic partnership executive in Canada's high-tech sector, I took a break and co-founded my first startup, Ladybug Teknologies. Ladybug enjoyed some success, and we developed innovative breath-screening technology for North American social drinkers. I raised $2M in capital, navigated the ropes of entrepreneurism and LEARNED more than any MBA could ever teach. Life learning is definitely part of my MOJO.

 

On the heels of exiting Ladybug, I decided I needed to learn more about 21st century marketing tactics. After all, if you aren't successful at marketing, you won't be successful at sales....the lifeblood of every business.  Enter the social media masters at the University of San Francisco. This intense and in-depth program served me well and enabled me to build several more companies thereafter.

 

As a non-technical executive, my skills lie in strategy development and execution, cultivating strong teams and propelling growth to achieve sustainable global competitiveness. ​I have established a track record of fostering high-quality job creation and intellectual property.
 

I am an accomplished connector, having worked and lived internationally, and I value the perspective being a global citizen provides. Diversity in all its forms is in my DNA, and I have built an organization that lives and breathes diversity at the Board level, in our employee base, our clientele and our leadership team. I am an experienced Director and ICD.D certified.

 

These days you will find me combining my well-honed business development skills with my savvy ecosystem development skills to help emerging markets build their own thriving innovation ecosystems.

I am passionate about entrepreneurism, technology and continuous life learning. This combination of characteristics has taken me to all corners of the world and enabled me to develop global friendships that enrich my life and challenge me to continue learning. I'm always interested in speaking to interesting people with great ideas.
