Building Financial Foundations for Startups
Fractional Controller Services for High-Growth Startups
With 17+ years in finance leadership — from bookkeeper to Controller to Acting CFO of a global life-science company — I help small and mid-sized businesses bring enterprise-level financial discipline to their operations.
​
​Vega Catalyst Consulting provides strategic and hands-on accounting support designed to scale your business with clarity, compliance, and confidence.
About Chris Vega
My name is Chris Vega
I'm a Controller with nearly two decades of experience guiding companies through audits, international expansions, funding rounds, and ERP implementations.
​
At BioQ Pharma, I led financial operations across seven countries, supported $55M in financing, and partnered with auditors to close 11 years of financials in just two years.
​
Vega Catalyst Consulting was founded to bring that same level of rigor and insight to growing companies — without the full-time Controller price tag.
