November 30, 2021


DENVER, CO. – November 15, 2021, Funk Futures, a leading Energy Tech sales and recruiting agency, is pleased to announce our expansion into the Canadian market through a partnership with the multi-talented Darren Woods. Located in Calgary, Alberta, Darren provides deep connectivity and insight into the North American energy industry. His experience as a business development and investment professional has cultivated a cross-border network of leading energy experts. Darren leverages these relationships to foster collaboration between innovators, operators and investors to promote technological progress in the energy space.

Darren will kickstart Funk Future’s presence in the Canadian buyer network while also collaborating on international marketing, branding, due diligence, and technology research. Woods was instrumental in growing the Darcy Partners brand in Canada and is very bullish on the Funk Futures brand. “Funk Futures is playing an important role for the energy industry at this time. Operators and innovators must collaborate to boost operational efficiency with modern technology, but finding the right fit is both challenging and time consuming. I'm excited to work with the seasoned experts on the Funk Futures team to help generate commercial traction using their highly targeted approach. Furthermore, fostering an energy tech landscape where innovation is shared freely across the Canada-US border is a critical step forward for North American energy."

In October, Darren appeared on Funk’s podcast, Tripping Over the Barrel which appears on the Digital Wildcatters platform. Find out how a musician from Vancouver Island ended up in Calgary doing Energy Tech and Finance as a CFA and asset manager.

Funk Futures’ CEO, Jeremy Funk, is confident in Darren’s ability to scale the business in Canada. “Darren is a huge addition to our team. His experience working closely with both innovators and operators make him a great fit to help expand our clients offerings north of the border.” By working together, Funk Futures and Darren plan to combine their industry leading contact lists to provide cost-efficient services to oil and gas companies in need while also expanding brand awareness.
