About Strategic Ventures

About Our Team
Peter Duflo is the Chief Executive Officer of Strategic Ventures. Over the past 16 years, Peter has led many executive search assignments for leading midsize MSPs, their boards, and their private equity investors. Earlier in his career, Peter led sales and operations at a global IT services company, which exited to a group of Private Equity investors led by Goldman Sachs, built an IT systems integration company, which he sold to a public strategic buyer, and then Peter led an M&A advisory firm exclusively focused on IT services companies.
Executive Leadership
Many senior MSP executives are successful because they are intensely focused on driving revenue. This “heads down” focus is a very positive attribute of A-Players. However, it can also be detrimental to their career aspirations because they often miss out on great opportunities to take their career to the next level. Strategic Ventures can give proven CXOs and VPs better visibility to these promising career opportunities.
Executive Search Process
Finding high-impact leadership has become more challenging as the growth of the MSP industry has exploded. The excellent news is Strategic Ventures has a deep network of relationships with senior executives at North American MSPs and a search process that minimizes the chance of making a costly mis-hire.
