Venture Capitalist Running for Rhode Island Treasurer
Rhode Island already has a private equity pro running for Governor (Rory Smith of Nautic Partners), so why not a venture capitalist running for Treasurer? That venture capitalist is Gina Raimondo, a general partner of Point Judith Capital. She helped found Providence-based Point Judith in 2002, after having spent three years running fund development and leading a handful healthcare deals for Village Ventures (Point Judith is part of the Village Ventures network). Her Point Judith portfolio companies include GetWellNetwork, NABsys, Novare Surgical and Spirus Medical. "I can think of no one I would rather have as the steward of the public's capital," says Matt Harris, a managing general partner of Village Ventures.
