Brent Grinna

I founded EverTrue in 2010 and helped build the donor experience category. Today, EverTrue serves more than 15,000 nonprofit organizations with technology spanning donor intelligence, AI, engagement and fundraising operations. I have helped lead the company through venture financing, private-equity investment and multiple acquisitions.

I have spent my career building organizations, teams and products from the ground up. My experience spans company formation, fundraising, product and go-to-market strategy, M&A and scaling a category-leading software business through multiple stages of growth.

I am co-founder and managing director of Alianza Capital, a Puerto Rico-based private investment fund focused on real estate and community development. I have also backed entrepreneurs building ambitious companies across software, consumer technology and marketplaces.
 

I grew up on a farm in Iowa and have always been drawn to new places, cultures and experiences. During the pandemic, my family traveled 12,000 miles through 36 states in an RV before ultimately moving to Puerto Rico. Exploration of places, cultures and ideas continues to shape how I live, lead and invest.
