ABOUT US
Building Organizations That Scale
Founded on the principle that transformational growth requires strategic discipline, W Advisors & Co. partners with organisations at the intersection of infrastructure, manufacturing, and technology.
Founder's Vision
David C. Woessner founded W Advisors with a mission to help organisations navigate the complexities of scaling effectively.
David C. Woessner
Founder & Managing Partner
With over 25 years of experience leading Fortune 500 companies, governments, and high-growth startups, David founded W Advisors to address a critical gap: growth-minded organisations need strategic partners who understand both the art of vision and the science of execution.
David’s approach combines rigorous analytical frameworks (established as an engineer and physicist) with creative problem-solving (honed by his liberal arts and business school education), helping organisations navigate complex stakeholder environments while maintaining focus on sustainable outcomes. His work spans public-private partnerships, venture-backed technology companies, and established industrial leaders seeking transformational growth.
Previous Experience: Business and corporate development (M&A) roles at IBM and Deloitte, mayoral appointee in municipal government (City of Detroit), senior executive roles and board member responsibility for multiple venture-backed technology and platform companies.
