Michael Fox

I lead S&C Advisory and the Spark & Code Venture Studio. We build new companies, sometimes ourselves, and sometimes by partnering with founders and companies at critical inflection points like launching new products, entering new markets, breaking through plateaus, refining GTM, executing carve-outs, or navigating M&A.

We’re not built like a consultancy, but instead as a company that builds companies. We are senior operators embedded directly into high-performing teams. We work inside your systems, show up in your meetings, and take accountability for outcomes.

Our model is built for long-term alignment. We take equity and help with capital, and everyone at S&C shares and co-invests into the companies that we help build. Our objectives are aligned perfect with every founder and every investor.

S&C includes 30+ highly vetted operators across product, design, marketing, growth, and operations. Everyone we work with has been tested in real-world collaboration, with no blind introductions, no theoretical playbooks. We’re structured for flexibility, not hierarchy, and we routinely tap into our network to solve urgent challenges, fill key gaps, and accelerate momentum.

We work with a limited number of companies at a time because our model is immersive by design. We are brought in when the stakes are high, the roadmap is unclear, and the cost of inaction is too great. In return, we bring focus, operating leverage, and a team that moves like owners and investors, because, well, we are.
