Hey! Dev here, 

I’m a First-Gen Business Owner and the Managing Partner of Matrix Venture Studio. 🚀

My journey began in law, after I completed my Bachelor of Arts and Laws from the University of Calcutta, followed by a Master of Laws from the University of New South Wales (UNSW). My international journey continued as I worked in various roles, including at HPE, where I gained valuable experience in tech and business operations.

After practicing in India, I took the leap to Canada, where I experienced firsthand the challenges of being an immigrant entrepreneur.

I landed here with a law degree and no knowledge of how to build a business here. Through countless sleepless nights, navigating complex regulations, and some hard-learned lessons, I realised which doors to knock on.

Now, I help other ambitious entrepreneurs avoid the same pitfalls I faced.

My mission is to transform how global entrepreneurs enter the Canadian market through a streamlined Startup Visa program. I'm the friend you need in Canada who knows the ropes and speaks your language of business.

My expertise spans across:

- Startup Visa Program Optimization
- Strategic Market Research
- Cross-Border Legal Advisory
- Business Development Consulting
- Financial Planning & Forecasting

What makes my approach unique?

- Firsthand experience as an immigrant entrepreneur
- Deep understanding of global business ecosystems
- 10+ years of cross-border legal expertise
- Strong connections with Canadian innovation hubs

Beyond my work at Matrix, I contribute to the entrepreneurial ecosystem as an Advisory Board Member at The Passion Centre Inc, PORCH Ambassador, and maintain strategic partnerships with Canadian incubators.

My passion lies in bridging the gap between global talent and Canadian opportunities. With every entrepreneur I work with, I bring not just expertise but personal understanding of their journey.

Dreaming of expanding in Canada? Let's connect! 

Drop me a DM, and let's explore how to bring your business vision to life. 🚀

Growth doesn’t create opportunity.
It reveals structural weakness.

Revenue scales.
Complexity scales faster.

More customers mean more decisions.
More coordination.
More pressure on systems.

If ownership isn’t clear, chaos expands.
If processes aren’t repeatable, stress compounds.

Scaling doesn’t fix weak foundations.
It amplifies them.

Before chasing growth, build:
 → Clear ownership
 → Decision discipline
 → Repeatable execution

Because growth multiplies whatever already exists.

Clarity scales.
Confusion scales faster.

The real question isn’t “Are you growing?”
It’s “Are you ready for growth?”
