Founder Profile.
Evan Santi
Founder
Evan Santi is the Founder of Berkley Ventures and Berkley Hunt, partnering with founders, CEOs, and venture capital firms to build and scale technology-driven companies.
Before launching Berkley Hunt, Evan billed over $1M in consecutive years, gaining first-hand insight into what truly differentiates early-stage and VC-backed businesses from large enterprises. That experience shaped his founder-first, stage-aware approach to building high-impact teams.
Today, Evan partners with investors and operators across the ecosystem, drawing on a global network of technologists and operators to support businesses through critical growth phases with long-term thinking and execution in mind.
