History
After years of working in accounting and finance for large firms, Daniel Ho founded Matrix Meridian when he saw an unmet need for expertise at the intersection of business and information technology. This revelation led Daniel to start a small one-person consulting firm.
As time went on, the projects became more significant. So, the firm partnered with the best in the field and brought more talent and expertise in-house to build a multi-disciplinary consulting firm.
Today, Matrix Meridian Corporation is a thriving boutique business and management consultancy based in downtown Toronto. The firm provides advisory services to some of the most innovative and respected retail, financial, manufacturing, non-profit, and education clients worldwide.

In his spare time, Daniel serves on the board of several local charities. He enjoys long-distance cycling and spending time in the outdoors with family & friends…that's when he's not relaxing by geeking out on one of his arcane interests.
Although he eats mostly a healthy diet, Daniel's kryptonite is fried chicken!
