Experience, Insight, and a Shared Commitment to Your Opportunity
At Maple Virtual Solutions, we believe promising businesses and projects deserve a clear, considered approach to pursuing capital.
We've seen how opportunities can struggle to gain investor interest when the financial story is unclear, documentation is inconsistent, or important questions remain unanswered. We've also seen how a more structured approach can help business owners understand their challenges and make better-informed decisions about what comes next.
Our work brings together financial expertise, operational insight, and practical experience across complex projects and investment materials.
Whether you're trying to understand why investors have passed on your opportunity, strengthen your funding readiness, or explore potential capital opportunities, we help you understand where you stand and what your next steps could be.
Our goal is straightforward: to give you the clarity, guidance, and professional support needed to move forward with greater confidence.
Financial Rigor Meets Operational Clarity
Preparing an opportunity for investment involves more than a well-written business plan or an attractive pitch deck. The financial assumptions, commercial rationale, operational plan, and supporting documentation need to work together.
That's where our complementary expertise makes a difference.
Kimberley brings the financial perspective. Her work focuses on financial modelling, documentation, assumptions, and the financial logic that supports an investment proposition.
Richard brings the operational perspective. His work focuses on commercial reasoning, technical feasibility, project structure, and the practical considerations involved in execution.
Together, we examine both the numbers and the story behind them. This allows us to consider not only how an opportunity is presented, but whether the supporting information communicates a coherent and credible case.
Our approach is collaborative, structured, and grounded in the needs of each engagement. We aim to provide clear findings, practical recommendations, and a realistic understanding of what may need to happen next.
Different Needs. A Connected Approach to Funding.
Every business and project has its own challenges. Some clients approach us after repeated investor rejections and want to understand what may be holding their opportunity back. Others are looking for funding or need broader support preparing a project for capital consideration.
Our services are designed to address those different needs.
The Partnership
Behind every review is a partner who's sat on both sides of the table.
Outside of client work, we're also athletes, gamers, and outdoor enthusiasts who understand the importance of balance—even when building something meaningful.
Kimberley is a designated CPA with nearly 15 years of experience supporting projects across Clean Tech, Renewable Energy, Green Infrastructure, Technology, Engineering, and Property Development. She has prepared financial models, documentation, and investor packages for projects ranging from $5 million to more than $500 million, helping founders and developers secure both debt and equity from institutional capital providers.
Her background includes work on global renewable energy and infrastructure initiatives, where she strengthened governance, financial clarity, and strategic alignment for complex, multi-stakeholder projects. Kimberley is known for producing investor-grade materials that withstand diligence, anticipate questions, and give decision-makers confidence in both the numbers and the team behind them.
She brings a disciplined, systematic approach to every engagement, ensuring that financial projections, operational plans, and strategic narratives align with what capital providers expect. Her work has helped organizations move from concept to capital-ready, improving decision-making and long-term project success.
Outside the Office
Kimberley stays active through cycling, strength training, and traveling. She's also an avid reader and spends time gaming alongside Richard—a shared hobby that keeps us connected even during busy seasons.
In Plain Terms
Kimberley ensures the numbers tell a story investors can trust. When you work with her, you're getting a CFO-level perspective on how institutional capital evaluates risk, viability, and return.
Richard has spent more than a decade preparing complex projects for capital review, helping founders and developers secure funding across Consumer Markets, Clean Tech, and Renewable Energy. He has supported projects ranging from early-stage pilots to multi-million-dollar infrastructure deployments, ensuring each one is documented, defensible, and ready for investor scrutiny. He specializes in transforming operational chaos into clarity.
Richard structures projects so that decision-makers can see the commercial logic, technical feasibility, and execution plan without having to hunt for answers. He works with cross-functional specialists including engineers, consultants, and subject-matter experts to produce submission packages that demonstrate readiness, credibility, and a clear path to implementation.
His work has supported thousands of projects, accelerated project approvals, and strengthened investor confidence for clients whose materials need to speak with authority. Richard brings the discipline of an operator and the pragmatism of someone who has guided projects through real-world constraints, timelines, and expectations.
Outside the Office
Richard has played hockey and video games for over 40 years, enjoys kettlebell training, traveling, and reading. Those weekend hockey games and late-night gaming sessions are where he learns teamwork, patience, and the value of showing up prepared—principles that translate directly to client work.
In Plain Terms
Richard makes sure your materials answer the questions before investors ask them. When you work with him, you're getting an operator's perspective on what actually gets approved—and what gets stuck in due diligence.

How We Work With You
Every engagement begins with understanding your story, not just your numbers. We learn about your vision, your challenges, and what has kept investors saying no in the past. This ensures our review is tailored to your specific situation, not a generic checklist.
Once we complete our diagnosis, we deliver a structured report that identifies exactly where your messaging breaks down, where data gaps undermine credibility, and where investors lose interest. Each finding includes specific examples from your materials, clear explanations of why it matters, and priority-ranked recommendations you can implement without hiring additional consultants.
In our wrap-up session, we walk through every recommendation, answer your questions, and help you prioritize next steps. By the end, you will have shared understanding of what to fix first, confidence in your revised approach, and a roadmap to submit.

Built on Partnership
From boardrooms to conferences, from late-night strategy sessions to celebration dinners—this is how we work, how we think, and why we stay aligned on every client engagement.
Over ten years ago, we chose to build something together beyond client work. That decision reshaped everything. It meant our standards had to match our accountability.
It meant no compartmentalized responsibilities where one partner owns success while the other owns failure.
Our clients inherit this alignment whether they see the photos below or not. When you hire Maple Virtual Solutions, you are investing in two professionals who have chosen to stand behind every word, number, and recommendation as jointly as we stand together in life.
These six moments span from 2016 to present day—a fraction of the time we have worked individually, but a complete representation of how we operate as partners. You will not find us shifting blame when a submission stalls or celebrating wins alone when funding arrives.
What you see in these frames is what you receive in every engagement: mutual responsibility, shared standards, and one unified point of accountability.
