Jordan Mayes

Wild story of a PE buyer negotiating in bad faith - reducing the enterprise value by almost 50% after signing!

🏅 Congratulations to our very own @shawnabbott who was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal for his important contribution to Alberta’s innovation ecosystem. Thank you @intergenscaleup for nominating Shawn to receive this honour!✨ #Congrats

Shout out to the teams in both companies who worked hard to bring us to this point. Onwards!

Excited to share that @TopHat has entered into an agreement to acquire @aktivlearn. We’re super excited to build with Justin, Igor and the entire team to empower educators to make STEM more effective and engaging. toph.at/h3k

@mattroberts @abbycabs @github @FeyNudibranch @anishapindoria @martinwoodward 😂

@abbycabs @JordanMayes @github @FeyNudibranch @anishapindoria @martinwoodward 🤔 why not go with AMayes? which would be an "amazing" new handle 🙃

It’s my first day @github 🎉 Thrilled to be running open source developer programs with some fantastic folks: @FeyNudibranch @anishapindoria @martinwoodward I already regret not changing my gh handle to @abbycabs… but with @\acabunoc maybe ppl will finally learn my last name

Two very different — but very influential — entitles in my life turn 20 today! Happy birthday to both @creativecommons & #LordOfTheRings 🎉 If only everything could be OPEN with a simple “speak friend and enter”

This is fantastic advice…

Interesting to see @Facebook re-use the name/domain/twitter account/etc. @meta from a @ChanZuckerberg acquisition. Meta - a great search engine for scientific research - was founded in Toronto and acquired in 2017.

@melsariffodeen Huckleberry’s (app) sleep schedule has been great for us. Adjusts wake windows based on when the baby sleeps/ wakes up…definitely recommend

10 weeks with my little one and everything everyone told me about becoming *obsessed* with sleep is true. If you have any great tips, book recommendations or magic tricks 🤞 for better baby sleep, I'm here for it! 🙋‍♀️

I stopped reading business books a while ago, I'm reading history and biographies instead. Here's 43 biographies that'll teach you way more than the concepts and strategies you're reading about right now. The 3rd one is probably my favorite. THREAD:

Excited to announce our fourth acquisition in the last two years - @MortonPub. Just getting started on our mission to empower educators to engage students and unleash their potential! theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

Wow! Congrats @MattGoldenVP

Great insights on streaming wars churn from @ballmatthew and the under-studied effect of returned subscribers...

I often hear people ripping on SRED. Matt’s overview of SRTC - SRED’s precursor - gives some great context of how SRED could be much worse...

Echo this completely. After working with Mike for almost 7 years @TopHat wouldn't be where it is without his vision, leadership and grit.

4/4 Startup life is never a straight line up and to the right ... but today is a great day at @TopHat.

3/4 Also thrilled to welcome @joerohrlich as Top Hat's new CEO. We're just getting started and we're excited to work with Joe to achieve our shared mission of empowering educators to engage students and unleash their potential.

1/4 Excited to announce @TopHat's series E led by @Georgian_io. Over the last 7 years Georgian has been a critical partner in every stage of our growth & even more so to me as we've begun to execute on our acquisition strategy. betakit.com/georgian-doubl…
