As Wealth Advisors, Fairway works with many professionals, both as clients and as partners of the business. To kick off Season 2 of Partnering with Great People, we are thrilled to introduce our listeners to a business partner, mentor and friend, John Drake. John is a London, Ontario–based lawyer turned entrepreneur and investor. After a successful legal career, he co-founded Drake Goodwin, a private equity firm behind major ventures in manufacturing, real estate, and self-storage, including Storage Vault—Canada’s largest network. He also helped create Redtail Golf Course, ranked among the world’s top private courses. Today, John leads Drake Law as President and Senior Counsel. Fun fact: when he’s not shaping businesses, John is an avid golfer and passionate about mentoring young professionals entering the financial industry.
