Mr. Leetzow brings more than 35 years of leadership experience building and scaling software and technology businesses across public and private markets, including serving as both a director and chief executive officer of public companies.

Mr. Leetzow previously served as president of Aware360, a technology and response business that helped keep lone and at-risk workers safer and more productive through scalable, people-centric SaaS solutions. At Aware360, Mr. Leetzow built and implemented the company's growth strategy and refined its go-to-market model, resulting in materially increased revenue expansion across the customer base.
Mr. Leetzow also previously served as president, chief executive officer and director of Cortex Business Solutions Inc., a Calgary-based public company trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. At Cortex, Mr. Leetzow led the turnaround and transformation of an underperforming technology company into a scalable SaaS software platform, increasing its enterprise value by over 4.5 times until its sale in 2019.
"I'm excited to join Sylogist at this important time in the company's evolution," said Joel Leetzow, chief executive officer of Sylogist. "Sylogist has a strong foundation, a talented team and deeply embedded customer relationships across the public sector. I believe there is a significant opportunity to strengthen operational execution, accelerate customer value creation and position the business for sustainable long-term growth, profitability and shareholder returns."
