“I have been an active member of Monday Club since 2005. I retired in 2003 and became acquainted with Fred through a mutual third party and began attending his sessions monthly.  I soon discovered we were mutual alumni with two great companies — Xerox and TRW —  had Ph.D.’s, and lived in close proximity to one another for many years…Fred is tireless and generous in his pursuit of quality suggestions to startup companies. He has cultivated quite a professional following and connection Rolodex in the process, which is always helpful.”

“The Monday Club meetings were really helpful to Synova. Unbeknownst to us, one of the lab directors from one of the labs we had been in talks with was present and we were able to tell Synova’s story with very positive results. Monday Club also helped us to establish relationships with some very experienced and knowledgeable folks. We’ve had some talks with a few of them about board positions, strategic partnerships and investment. Nothing finalized yet, but hopefully in the very near future. Thanks!”
