I’m happy to announce that Gavin Gillas has joined Yeoman’s Capital as our Chief Partnerships Officer. Here’s what that means and how to best interact with Gavin.

Invest, Launch, Grow

Gavin is an expert in growing startups, having done it himself multiple times. In fact, many of you in Austin likely already know Gavin from his work in the startup and tech scene over the past five years.

Gavin was the co-founder and CEO of The Magazine Channel (digital media monetization), co-founder of Giving Docs (fintech giving platform), and a tech and commercialization mentor (MassChallenge, Galvantize, Techstars NEXT, DivInc and UT Austin EIR).

Where Henry Liu our CIO is traveling the world finding new projects, and Mark Thorsen our COO helps get those projects successfully launched, Gavin comes in post-launch in the growth stage when projects need help building out sales teams, streamlining products, and partnering with big companies.

Our process flows from investment (Henry)> to launch (Mark)> to growth (Gavin).

It’s a real pleasure to get to work with such experienced and successful professionals in this new field.
