Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at Synergence?

Marc Howard Guest serves as CEO of Synergence Ventures Corporation and its affiliated foundation, with Abhijit Das as CFO. The original firm was founded by Didier Livio before its acquisition by Deloitte. Investment authority appears concentrated with Guest and the executive team.

What is Synergence's relationship with Deloitte?

Synergence traces its lineage to a consulting firm founded by Didier Livio that was acquired by Deloitte. The current entity is not a Deloitte subsidiary; its website domain (deloitte.com) is a legacy artifact. The investment firm operates independently under Marc Howard Guest's leadership.

Does Synergence operate as a family office or an asset manager?

Synergence is structured as an asset manager rather than a single-family office. It pursues a generalist strategy that includes direct venture investing, infrastructure projects in Argentina, and hard-asset exposure through a sister entity, Phoenix Mining Group, which handles gold and currency transactions.

What investment stages does Synergence target?

Public record indicates focus across early-stage venture categories, including start-up and seed-stage opportunities. The firm also engages in project-level infrastructure and special-situations transactions involving tradeable commodities like ICUMSA sugar, silver, and heritage bonds.

How does Synergence source its deal flow?

Sourcing appears to run through professional networks including the UN NGO community (Synergence holds consultative-status NGO registration in Geneva) and financial-industry associations such as IBEFA. The firm also co-invests with Phoenix Mining Group, suggesting shared origination across hard-asset and venture pipelines.
