Bruce Croxon Biography

Bruce Croxon is a modern Renaissance guy who is living the American dream of entrepreneurship. Bruce established himself as a digital pioneer by co-founding Lavalife in 1988, long before "social networking" became a buzzword. With over 2,000,000 users (and numerous happy marriages!) under his leadership, this early digital start-up developed into the flagship brand in online dating. He guided the company's sale for a staggering 180 million dollars after its meteoric ascent, with the help of his partners. Bruce is now expanding his experience by leading Round13, a firm committed to investing in early-stage digital startups such as Sprigg Software and Round Assist. He also invests in the health and wellness industry as the owner of Vida, a network of high-end holistic spas on Canada's west coast. He most recently invested in FEAST, a Toronto-based allergy-friendly gourmet food retailer. Bruce added a diverse range of businesses and products to his portfolio as an investor on CBC's Dragons' Den for three years (2011-2013), including Balzac's Coffee and EnRICHed Academy, which tap into his love for digital media, marketing, and giving back to the community. Bruce enjoys talking to business owners and sharing his insights. Bruce has a wide variety of deal exposure and practical advice thanks to his 20+ years of experience helping emerging businesses thrive and his three years as an investor on CBC's Dragon's Den. The visions and principles necessary to build businesses in a fast-paced business climate are particularly important to Bruce. When it comes to “going offline,” Bruce is always up for exploring the great outdoors, which is his other love. He considers Canada's scenery to be his personal backyard, where he enjoys surfing, golfing, and kayaking. He spends his spare time on the exciting slopes of Whistler Blackcomb, whether on a bike or on skis. Bruce likes spending time with his wife and two children at his eco-friendly house on an island in picturesque Georgian Bay, where he is an active environmentalist. Bruce and his family live in Toronto, and he is an outspoken supporter of Anaphylaxis Canada.
