Anthony is an innovation expert who harnesses his well-rounded experiences as a former Silicon Valley venture capital investor, startup founder, and global corporate operator to help organizations drive new and sustainable growth by engaging the best innovation investment practices.

As a VC at Silicon Valley funds managing over $1 billion in assets, Anthony was an early investor in top startups like Oculus, Palantir, Addepar, and RelateIQ — across a range of industries. After exiting his investments through acquisitions by top global technology companies, he founded and eventually sold his own technology startup. Later he joined Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Sweden, to lead their startup and venture capital business development efforts in Northern Europe and drive growth partnerships between large enterprise customers of AWS and the most promising venture-backed startups. 

Prior to joining Mach49, he focused on scaling corporate innovation investment — advising global organizations like CJ Group (Korea) and Posten Norge (Norway) to develop and operate their respective corporate venture capital teams.

Anthony holds a Juris Doctorate, MBA, and bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Washington. He is also certified in AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
