Hamilton Lane opens Toronto office led by ex-CVCA CEO Mike Woollatt
Hamilton Lane, a US$470 billion private-markets investment and advisory firm, has opened an office in Toronto, its first in Canada. The location will be run by Mike Woollatt, hired in January as a principal in the fund investments and co-investments team. Woollatt joined from $97 billion Canadian pension fund OMERS, where he was a director, strategic partnerships, with OMERS Platform Investments. Prior to joining OMERS in 2018, Woollatt for four years led the Canadian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association. Hamilton Lane’s opening of a Toronto office follows its selection for investment last year by Ottawa’s Venture Capital Catalyst Initiative.
