Toronto, ON and Philadelphia, PA – January 27, 2026 – EnerTech Capital, a leading venture capital firm focused on innovation in mobility, industry 4.0, and connected customer, is pleased to announce the expansion of its growing innovation platform with a portfolio services layer using a curated collection of independently owned businesses. These companies will provide critical services to its portfolio companies and broader network, including a partnership with advisory & restructuring firm Steinberg Advisory Corp. (“SAC”).
EnerTech’s Expanded Innovation Platform – Addition of Restructuring Services
Over the past 29 years, EnerTech has received over 15,000 funding requests and made over 78 direct investments. Start-ups often struggle to access experienced, skilled resources as they do not have the budget to hire the right full-time talent. The partnerships EnerTech is developing are meant to fill this gap with seasoned operators who understand and support innovative start-ups and high growth companies.
EnerTech’s expanded portfolio services layer will include partnerships with a curated collection of independently owned companies that provide fractional services to our portfolio companies and broader network. We believe these innovative, impact-oriented leaders have the right skills and mindset to work with early-stage to growth-stage companies.
The core fractional service partnership areas EnerTech is rolling out will include:
Restructuring
In-house Legal
Strategy Implementation
Human Resources
Steinberg Advisory Corp.

EnerTech is pleased to have SAC as a partner on the platform to provide advisory and restructuring capabilities. SAC was founded by Howard Steinberg, who has over 25 years of experience in operational and restructuring services. Howard and his team of 10 specialize in operational restructurings, serving both private and public companies and their stakeholders across diverse industries.
Howard has served on numerous boards and committees and has held positions as Chief Restructuring Officer and CEO in both public and private companies, operating within and outside court protection. His past roles include Managing Director at Fortress Investment Group and RBC Capital Partners, President of The Rose Corporation, and Head of Canadian Distressed Lending at GE Capital.
“We are thrilled to have Steinberg Advisory as a partner on our expanded services platform. Howard and I have known one another for over 25 years and worked together at RBC Capital Partners earlier in our careers. Howard and his team have developed a platform of core services that will be a valuable resource for both our firm and our broader network of Corporate LPs and co-investors,” said Wally Hunter, Managing Partner at EnerTech Capital.
SAC’s core services include, but are not limited to:
Financial and Strategic Advisory – Strategic planning, assessments, financing solutions
Operational Restructuring – interim management & full-scale operational restructurings
CRO (Chief Restructuring Officers) – for companies in and out of court protection
Forensic Accounting
Shareholder / Stakeholder Dispute Resolutions
“EnerTech Capital has created an exceptional platform for advancing high-potential companies, and we are excited to join as a strategic partner. Growing businesses inevitably face operational inflection points, and Steinberg Advisory brings the discipline, experience, and hands-on operational execution often required to navigate them successfully. On a personal note, I’m particularly excited to be working with Wally again after many years of shared success and co-locating in our shared office space in downtown Toronto,” said Howard Steinberg, Founder of Steinberg Advisory.
