In 1999, Dan Tierney co-founded GETCO - Global Electronic Trading Company, one of the world’s first automated market-making firms.

In 2012, Dan started Wicklow Capital, his family office. Wicklow Capital engages in a combination of venture capital investing and venture philanthropy. The core focus is ABCD – AI, Blockchain, Climate, Democracy.

Dan is also interested in biomedical advances and serves as a board member of The Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, CA. Dan holds a B.S. in Economics and Finance from Bentley University in Waltham, MA, yet found his minor in Philosophy to ultimately be of greater value.
