Ryan is the founder and CEO of Electric, the IT management platform for small and medium businesses. Electric uses automation and AI to provide real-time support to companies that do not have their own IT departments. Since its founding in 2016, the company has raised over $200 million from top-tier investors and is valued at over $1 billion. Ryan is a three-time entrepreneur with two exits before Electric. He built an ad network that sold to BNQT Media Group, which was subsequently acquired by USA TODAY, and sold Swarm Mobile to Groupon in 2014. Ryan is also an active investor and hands-on advisor to companies including Stadium Goods and Blackbird. He brings experience across every stage of company building, with particular depth in go-to-market strategy, organizational design, and revenue. We first met Ryan in 2017, when Electric became Dan and James first ever angel investment and subsequently first investment to be valued at over $1B.
