Dan Barker
Halcyon – President and CEO
In January, Barker—a veteran of Mastercard and BlackRock—took the helm at ten-year-old Halcyon. The early-stage incubator supports what it calls “impact-driven businesses”—or those focused on social change—in hopes of developing a more equitable economic landscape.
Dahna Goldstein and Kate Goodall
Halcyon Venture Partners – Managing Partners
Goodall and Goldstein, both longtime investors, launched this new firm focused on help-ing startups tackling climate, health, and equity (think inclusive fintech). With $15 million under their control, in May they bet on TadHealth, a platform for streamlining mental-health services in schools.
