Bio

Dan Kimerling started Deciens because of the realization that there was (and, other than Deciens, is) no venture capital fund focused on supporting fintech companies at the seed stage. Having helped start three companies and invested in over forty, he thought that this was a major problem for founders trying to re-shape a sector that is over 20% of global GDP.\n\nUntil September 2017, Dan was a senior executive at Silicon Valley Bank responsible for API Banking, Open Platform, and Global Research and Development. He joined Silicon Valley Bank in July of 2015 through the acquisition of Standard Treasury, which he co-founded and served as the CEO. Standard Treasury - a YCombinator company - was the leading provider of API solutions to the financial services community
