CHAD ABOUD
Indigo Books & Music INC.
As Senior Corporate Counsel on Indigo’s in-house legal team, Chad Aboud has worked closely with internal clients and outside IP counsel to pave the way for an expansion of the business into the US. Aboud was a key member of the deal team for a complex Intellectual Property acquisition, which was unique to Indigo, the buyer, and its phased approach at providing continuity of business operations to the seller was also unique to the industry. The IP acquired was critical to the organization’s digital growth objectives. Aboud is a mentor for the Osgoode/Schulich JD MBA Program, providing advice and career-planning support to students. He has been an advisor and dedicated business partner to the Indigo Love of Reading Foundation, which promotes children’s literacy, and helped lead the Indigo team to victory in the 2017 Toronto Corporate Run.
