OxfordVR is the University of Oxford spinout that developed automated virtual-reality psychological treatments, including gameChange for agoraphobic avoidance in severe mental illness and an earlier height-phobia intervention. Its virtual coach delivers structured cognitive-behavioral exercises designed from clinical research. The UK legal issuer is Oxford VR Limited, company10472107, incorporated10November2016 as OXVRLtd and renamed the following month. Some commercial announcements describe a2017launch; this is distinguished from legal incorporation. OxfordVR combined with BehaVR in December2022, with the business continuing under the BehaVR brand and later RealizedCare. The shared USD13M2022SeriesB is recorded once under that combined platform, not as an additional independent OxfordVR raise. XRHealth later announced acquisition of RealizedCare; that asset-platform transaction does not prove dissolution or direct acquisition of every historical UK legal entity. Companies House still lists OxfordVRLtd as active, with Aaron Gani the sole current registered director. Its older public website shows a historical operating roster, qualified alongside dated changes in leadership and resigned statutory directors. Verified independent funding is GBP3.2M announcedSeptember2018 and USD12.5MSeriesA announcedFebruary2020, also reported asGBP10M in UK sources. The2021Rey funding and proposed OxfordVRabsorption are a separate recipient-identity research task; no aggregate or acquisition consideration is added as newOxfordVRcash. AcademicNIHR budgets are not assumed to be company grants. GameChange’s FDA Breakthrough Device designation is distinguished from regulatory marketing approval; clinical research and NICE evaluation are source-specific evidence, not blanket efficacy or approval claims.

His prior professional career covers real-estate investment management and infrastructure, including TorreSGR, Generali Properties and DoRe. The current original portrait is explicitly named by Invitalia.

Invitalia is Italy’s national development agency, legally Agenzia nazionale per l’attrazione degli investimenti e lo sviluppo d’impresa S.p.A., a state-owned joint-stock company. The official Italian public-administration directory identifies tax code05678721001. It was established as Sviluppo Italia in1999 and is wholly controlled by the Ministry of Economy and Finance. It administers business-development incentives and concessional financing, supports innovative startups and strategic industrial investment, assists public administrations with national and European programmes, and acts as a public procurement and project-implementation body. Smart&Start Italia supports innovative enterprises, including AI and other advanced digital technologies; programme budgets, awards, paid cash and private equity are distinct. Public startup stories demonstrate innovation-finance relevance without establishing every individual award amount or payment date. Its current public leadership is president Sergio Schisani and chief executive Bernardo Mattarella. The source-scoped team includes the published five-member governing board, five statutory-audit members, eleven identifiable additional first-line executives from the May4,2026 organization chart, and two separately published financial-reporting/compliance officers. Executive chart initials are expanded only where an official fuller-name source is available. The A.Bianchi chart identity is resolved as Andrea Bianchi by the agency’s own September2025 announcement identifying the same strategy, industrial-policy and sustainability responsibility. Only two authentic individual portraits are published on the core governance pages; missing headshots and longer career biographies remain explicit gaps. Subsidiary-only appointees are not cloned into the parent’s executive roster. Invitalia is a separate shareholder from its former subsidiary Invitalia Ventures SGR. The latter was formally renamed CDP Venture Capital SGR S.p.A. inJanuary2020 and managed ItaliaVentureI’s historical Empatica investment. That actual manager’s full canonical Investor2045 and separate protected legacy4725 are preserved; the parent agency is not substituted as an Empatica investor. Corporate programme resources are not external LP fund closes, and no invented private fund, ticket allocation, individual investment or company-financing round is created from public budgets.

Lauren Leonhardt is a Louisville business professional who publicly described celebrating two years at Thornton Capital in a historical own-profile post. The January–March 2023 newsletter of Visually Impaired Preschool Services independently identifies her as one of Thornton Capital’s team members in its account of a charitable award presentation. Her current public profile instead identifies Lifetime Financial Growth, so ongoing Thornton employment and a present chief-operating-officer title are not asserted. She announced completing an MBA at Bellarmine University in 2023. No precise departure day or personal equity check is inferred.

Michael Lynch is a Louisville finance professional publicly affiliated with Thornton Capital. The 2025 Finance Futuring Panel report published by MBA Research and the Kentucky Department of Education explicitly lists him as the firm’s chief financial officer; his public professional profile continues to identify Thornton Capital. He studied at the University of Kentucky and lists a CPA credential issued in September 2000. His own public material discusses finance automation and artificial intelligence. An exact public tenure-start day and complete career chronology are unavailable. He is distinct from unrelated people with the same name; no personal investment is inferred from this employment.

Oliver Brown is a Louisville finance professional affiliated with Thornton Capital. The firm’s own public employee caption identifies him as finance manager. His public professional profile describes work in mergers and acquisitions, valuation, financial analysis and financial modelling and records study at the University of Denver’s Daniels College of Business during 2015–2016, including participation in the Marsico Fund and DU Solar. The accessible profile lists a Series 79 credential. Exact current regulatory registration, employment dates and transaction allocations are not established by those disclosures.

Sam Crockett is a Louisville investment professional whose public profile identifies Thornton Capital. The family office’s own public company-profile employee caption describes him as a senior investment manager. His individual profile lists Cornell University study for 2025–2027. The accessible material does not disclose a complete earlier career, an exact employment-start day or particular investment responsibilities, so those details remain unverified. His employment does not establish an individual cash contribution to portfolio companies.

Toni Capito is a Louisville professional publicly affiliated with Thornton Capital. The firm’s own public company-profile caption describes her experience supporting C-level executives and their teams; her individual public profile identifies Thornton Capital as her employer. The accessible primary material does not establish her exact internal job title, tenure-start day, educational history or complete earlier career. The affiliation is retained at that published scope, without assigning investment-decision authority or a personal portfolio-company check.

Tom Jones is president and chief investment officer of Thornton Capital and a founding principal of Platform Real Estate Group. That venture’s primary biography states that he oversees the family office’s investment strategy, risk management and business development. His earlier career included relationship-management, business-development and credit positions at JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo, following experience at Deloitte. The biography records an MBA from UNC Chapel Hill and undergraduate degrees in economics and German from Sewanee. No exact employment start day or personal financing allocation is publicly established.

Matt Thornton is the founder and principal of Thornton Capital, a Louisville single-family investment office launched after the 2019 sale of the Thorntons convenience-store business. The primary biography published by Platform Real Estate Group identifies him as a founding principal of that real-estate venture and records his 2001–2019 service as president and CEO of Thorntons. He also provided seed backing to Chicago real-estate investor L3 Capital in 2009. Endeavor identifies him as a regional board chair. These operating-company sales, outside roles and seed commitments are not recorded as cash raised by Thornton Capital. The unrelated Rapta executive Matthew D. Thornton remains a separate person.

Thornton Capital is the Louisville, Kentucky single-family investment office established by Matt Thornton in2019 after the sale of the Thorntons convenience-store business. Its own public company profile describes long-term growth investments across real estate, venture capital and private equity. Publicly accessible primary Platform Real Estate Group biographies identify Matt as its principal and Tom Jones as president/chief investment officer, overseeing investment strategy, risk management and business development. Thornton Capital LLC is independently named as a member of a Florida real-estate subsidiary at the same Louisville office address; the exact Kentucky organization number and any particular investment SPV remain unverified. The unrelated Colorado Thornton Capital Management hedge-fund manager, Indiana Thornton Capital Group and Grant Thornton accounting firms are separate entities. Its documented neuroscience relevance is institutional backing of BehaVR, which develops virtual-reality mental-health and behavioral-health therapeutics. The issuer explicitly names Thornton Capital in its December13,2022 initialUSD13M SeriesB financing, and an issuer-side RxLightning publication of BehaVR founder Aaron Gani’s account names Thornton Capital(Matt Thornton) among its Louisville investors. The particular paying vehicle and ticket are not publicly disclosed. Mile Auto’s May24,2021 primary financing release also names Thornton Capital; that computer-vision/decision-analytics insurance business is queued for a full profile and exact event audit, not added as a bare company. These transactions do not establish a blanket neuroscience or AI specialization. The accessible public team scope comprises six published current affiliations and one explicitly historical team member. Senior-investment-manager and finance-manager captions are published in the company’s public professional profile; continuing exact titles and full tenure dates are not independently verified beyond those disclosures. Lauren Leonhardt is historical because her current own profile identifies a different employer. No complete private employee census is claimed from a platform headcount. Genuine own branding and two named primary portraits are recorded; five additional individual portraits are unavailable from accessible primary sources. The main company website currently presents password protection; no protected content or login is bypassed. Its publicly served login page nevertheless publishes its genuine company logo. No public external LP-fund closing or exact family-office capital corpus has been verified. The sale of Thorntons, real-estate debt/property purchases, portfolio-company totals and charitable commitments are not recorded as Thornton Capital investment-fund cash raises.

Braxton Sandman works in fund finance and operations at Rethink Impact. Before joining he was an associate at Natixis CIB, advising technology clients on financing and acquisitions, including AI infrastructure. The firm’s biography names Project Stargate among transaction experience; this is a personal career attribution, not a Rethink portfolio investment. He studied finance at the University of Richmond and volunteers with Harlem Grown.

Jill Ni is a principal at Rethink Impact. Her earlier work at Goldman Sachs’ Urban Investment Group involved equity and debt impact investments across education, sustainability, economic development and small-business finance.

Joe Garcia is a principal at Rethink Impact, with experience at the intersection of climate investing and finance. Before joining full-time he interned with the firm while completing an MBA and environmental-sustainability master’s degree at Michigan’s Erb Institute. He directed the university’s Social Venture Fund and worked with Lewis & Clark AgriFood, following earlier software sales and business-development roles. His publisher-bound LinkedIn profile is joecgarcia; this scoped identity is preserved separately from the unbridged same-name a16z talent profile.

Chelsea Morris is Rethink Impact’s VP of Platform and has worked with the firm since 2015. Her responsibilities span portfolio CEO programming, events, communications, investor engagement and operations, after earlier work on investing. Her prior experience includes development work at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and founding charitable apparel business Love and Be Loved. She graduated from Penn State.

Heidi Patel is a managing partner at Rethink Impact. She previously led New Island Capital Management and its early-stage investment work, served as an Acumen fellow and invested at Pacific Community Ventures and AOL Time Warner Ventures. She studied at Princeton and Stanford, where she co-created an impact-investing course. Her current own biography describes healthcare, robotics and workforce portfolio involvement, including Spring Health among prior investments; specific board roles do not establish personal cash checks.

Jenny Abramson founded Rethink Impact and serves as its managing partner. Her earlier career includes leading LiveSafe and roles at The Washington Post, Personal, Boston Consulting Group, DC Public Schools and Teach for America. She studied at Stanford, Harvard Business School and the London School of Economics as a Fulbright Scholar. The firm’s current biography lists portfolio-board roles including Bold, Wellthy, Parallel Learning and Seven Starling, alongside outside nonprofit and industry boards; these do not establish personal investments.

Cassi Hofmann is executive assistant at Corewell Health Ventures. The corporate investment platform publishes her name, current role and authentic portrait in its five-person team directory, and links her own public professional profile associated with Corewell Health in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The official directory does not publish a longer career or education biography, so earlier employment, credentials and appointment dates remain unverified.

Maritza Saavedra is an advisor at Corewell Health Ventures. Her primary Invest3602026 event biography describes evaluating healthcare investments and strategic partnerships, with experience in venture capital, healthcare innovation, payer strategy and health-system operations. It identifies earlier work at Priority Health, the integrated health plan of Corewell Health, and degrees from Ferris State University and Michigan State University without specifying degree types. Her current advisor title and authentic portrait are published in the manager directory.

Kristina Emery is a principal at Corewell Health Ventures. Her linked public professional profile identifies nursing credentials BSN and RN. Her public healthcare work includes technology adoption and patient-care innovation: a primary professional conference roster identifies her Ventures affiliation, and public Corewell partner discussion associates her with remote-patient-monitoring implementation. Current title comes from the official manager directory. Specific degrees, certifications, prior appointment dates and employer history are not inferred from secondary profiles.

Ted Maidenberg is a historical Social Capital co-founder and currently a Tribe Capital co-founder/managing director according to Tribe’s own public biography. He previously worked as a USVP partner and Time Warner Investments director, helped companies including Slack, TrunkClub and Saildrone, and graduated from Washington University in St.Louis. Social Capital’s2013 FundII issuer filing identifies him as a general-partner director; Tribe’s own history establishes its2018 founding. The Social Capital role is historical, with no inferred current employer or personal investment.

Tyler B. Ybema is a principal at Corewell Health Ventures, the corporate healthcare investing platform of Corewell Health. The current official directory identifies him by full name and publishes his authentic portrait. A primary Michigan State University Research Foundation event post also identifies Tyler Ybema as a Corewell Health Ventures investment judge at PitchMI. His detailed education and earlier employment are not established by accessible primary biographies; no secondary financial-analyst career claims are imported.

Chief Financial Officer of The Social+Capital Partnership LLC, the legal adviser using the Social Capital brand. Its March31,2026 annual ADV identifies her CFO appointment as May2024, lists her as a control person and is signed by her in that capacity. Her self-published professional profile describes venture-capital/private-equity accounting experience, Osmania University education and Enrolled Agent certification. Current regulatory CFO evidence takes precedence over older accountant titles; personal investment and a current complete staff roster are not inferred.

Alberto Poli is Empatica Srl’s Director of Quality and Regulatory Compliance, explicitly named in FDA clearance letters K242737 inJune2025 and K260374 datedAugust14,2026. The latest Parkinson’s monitoring submission identifies him as the Italian manufacturer’s responsible regulatory contact and confirms the same title. This operational role is distinct from a statutory board appointment or personal investment. An independently attributable authentic portrait remains unavailable.

Larsson Omberg is explicitly identified as an Empatica Scientific Advisor in its September16,2026 summit programme. His primary Michael J. Fox Foundation researcher biography describes a physics PhD from the University of Texas at Austin, machine-learning and statistical work on genomic phenotypes, and digital biomarkers from remote sensors and mobile phones. His prior Sage Bionetworks systems-biology affiliation is attributed to that undated researcher biography rather than assumed a current executive appointment.

Len Picard is the executive officer and director named in the April2014 primary SEC FormD for Physiio International,Inc., CIK1606818, the same US issuer subsequently named Empatica Inc. His two legal capacities and Massachusetts company address are explicitly recorded in that filing. No current Empatica title, full-name expansion or relationship to another Picard is inferred; his independently attributable portrait and wider primary biography remain unavailable.

Mario Scuderi is the director explicitly identified by Empatica Inc.’s August11,2022 primary SEC FormD. The filing associates him with Empatica at its Cambridge address and marks Director, without an executive-officer label. This source-proven historical board affiliation is retained with current tenure unconfirmed; no biography or portrait from unrelated CNR researchers, physicians or financial-sales namesakes is substituted.

Matthew K. Nock, presented as Matt Nock in Empatica’s supporters directory, is Harvard’s Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology. His primary university biography describes research on self-harm and suicide using epidemiological, experimental and clinical approaches. He received his psychology PhD from Yale in2003. Empatica names him as an external scientific supporter, without implying company employment or a statutory board position. Its undated Harvard College Professor label is treated as historical outside biography.

Robert Stickgold is a sleep and cognition researcher named in Empatica’s current public scientific and medical supporters directory. The company identifies his association with the Center for Sleep and Cognition at Harvard Medical School. This scientific supporter affiliation is distinct from company employment, statutory directorship or personal investment.

Matthew S. Goodwin, presented as Matt Goodwin in Empatica’s supporters directory, is a professor jointly appointed in Northeastern’s Khoury College of Computer Sciences and Bouvé College of Health Sciences. His primary university biography describes more than25 years developing and evaluating behavioural assessment technologies for autistic children and adults, including ambulatory physiological monitoring, accelerometry and machine learning. Empatica names him as an external scientific supporter; its undated Autism Speaks co-chair label is not asserted as current outside employment.

Orrin Devinsky is an epilepsy physician and researcher named in Empatica’s current scientific and medical supporters directory. The company identifies his leadership of the NYU Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. This published supporter affiliation is distinct from an Empatica employee, statutory director or personally attributed investment.

Santiago Arroyo is named in Empatica’s current public scientific and medical supporters directory. Its accompanying Chief Medical Officer at Momenta Pharmaceuticals label is an undated outside-company biography and is not asserted as current employment. His Empatica affiliation is recorded as a published medical supporter, not an employee or statutory board appointment.

Marisa Cruz is a physician named in Empatica’s current public scientific and medical supporters directory, which identifies her as Amgen VP and Head of Global Digital Medicine. Empatica’s November 22, 2022 issuer announcement identified her as its Chief Medical Officer at that time. The historical CMO role is not treated as current company employment.

Ivan Cenci is Empatica’s General Manager. The current company directory identifies his double MSc training in biomedical engineering and his work delivering healthcare technology results. This is an operational company role, with no personal investment implied.

Maurizio Garbarino is Empatica’s Chief Software Architect. He holds a PhD in computer science and works in affective-computing research. His current company biography describes developing software and hardware that enable advances in research through physiological sensing.

Simone Tognetti is Empatica’s Chief Technology Officer. He has a PhD in artificial intelligence and computer science, and the current company directory describes his focus on making its wearable and connected-health technology work. The 2022 issuer SEC offering also lists him among executive related persons.

Matteo Lai is Empatica’s co-founder and Chief Executive Officer. His current company biography describes architectural and engineering training, a double MSc in architecture and a master’s in innovation management. Empatica’s 2026 summit programme explicitly identifies his co-founder role.

Rosalind Picard is Empatica’s Chief Scientist and a co-founder. The company’s current public biography identifies her as founder and director of the MIT Media Lab Affective Computing Group and faculty chair of the MIT Mind+Hand+Heart wellbeing initiative. Her scientific work connects affective computing, physiology and human health.

M. Zachary Rosenthal is a Duke clinical psychologist and professor working in psychiatry, psychology and neuroscience. His clinical and research interests include emotion regulation and behavioral treatment. His Duke profile provides his professional qualifications and authentic portrait. BehaVR’s October 2021 announcement named him to its scientific advisory board; no current advisory term or personal investment is inferred.

Adriaan Louw is a physical therapist and pain-neuroscience educator. His published Evidence In Motion biography describes Stellenbosch training, doctoral research in pain neuroscience education and extensive teaching in rehabilitation and pain care. UNLV publishes a caption-bound faculty portrait. BehaVR named him as a scientific adviser in October 2021; this is a historical affiliation. He is distinct from similarly named photographers and architects.

Hunter Hoffman is a University of Washington researcher in virtual reality and pain perception. His published laboratory biography describes a cognitive psychology doctorate and research into attention, memory and immersive techniques for reducing pain. BehaVR’s October 2021 announcement named him as a scientific adviser. This source-dated advisory affiliation is retained without asserting a current term or cash investment.

Amelia Aldao is a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Together CBT, specializing in anxiety, OCD, stress and cognitive behavioral therapy. Her published biography reports a Yale psychology doctorate and Pennsylvania undergraduate psychology degree, together with academic teaching and research experience. BehaVR’s October 2021 announcement named her to its scientific advisory board. No current advisory term or personal financial participation is inferred.

Rory Channer is a commercial strategy and sales leadership adviser. BehaVR announced his chief commercial officer appointment in January 2021 after an advisory relationship; exact employment and advisory end dates are undisclosed. Earlier leadership included McDermott Will & Emery, Ruffalo Noel Levitz, Circleback and CEB. His current own professional biography describes Selling Innovations commercial advisory work and industrial psychology studies at Hull. The BehaVR affiliation is historical.

Takehiko Nomura is a pharmaceutical executive whose published FrontAct biography describes a Kyoto doctorate, drug-development and CMC work, and leadership of Sumitomo Pharma’s global frontier business. He became FrontAct chief executive in 2024; subsequent ownership changes are separate from his earlier Sumitomo career. BehaVR’s 2020 SEC filing identifies him as a director, corroborated by his published professional profile. Only that historical BehaVR directorship is represented here.

Daniel Freeman is an Oxford clinical psychologist and researcher in psychological treatments, including automated virtual-reality therapy. Oxford identifies him as chair of psychology and a fellow of the British Academy and British Psychological Society. He founded OxfordVR scientifically and was named among the scientific leadership when OxfordVR combined with BehaVR in 2022. This affiliation is qualified to that announcement; it does not assert a current RealizedCare executive or board position.

Erin Conwell is a healthcare marketing professional named on the Veterans Affairs innovation marketplace’s original RealizedCare team. A published customer case study identifies her as Fern Health’s director of marketing during the period leading into the RealizedCare combination. This record describes that historical marketing affiliation; a current RealizedCare position and exact employment dates are not established. No caption-bound authentic public portrait was verified.

Jillian Ahrens is a digital-health product and experience-design leader. After product and design work at Pear Therapeutics, she served as RealizedCare’s chief product and design officer, overseeing digital therapeutic experiences. Her current employer FutureSelf describes RealizedCare as a former role and publishes her chief experience design remit. Her personal career page documents the earlier Pear and RealizedCare periods; undated older descriptions are not treated as proof of current RealizedCare employment.

Patrick Murta previously served as RealizedCare’s chief technology officer after more than two decades in healthcare technology at Humana. His published career covers enterprise architecture, interoperability and digital healthcare, including FHIR-related infrastructure initiatives. The current CAQH/DataSpring board biography identifies him as a Centene technology vice president and describes RealizedCare as a prior position. The affiliation here is historical rather than an assertion of a current standalone executive role.

Risa Weisberg is a clinical psychologist and Boston University psychiatry professor whose work concerns behavioral health and evidence-based psychological treatment. She was RealizedCare’s chief clinical and scientific officer, developing the clinical foundations of its digital therapeutics. Her subsequent employer FutureSelf explicitly describes that RealizedCare position as former. Boston University also reports an adjunct Brown affiliation; these academic appointments do not establish current employment at RealizedCare.

Aaron Gani founded BehaVR, the VR digital-therapeutics business later branded RealizedCare, and was its chief executive before the 2025 XRHealth acquisition. The acquisition announcement appointed him general manager of XRHealth US; a standalone current RealizedCare CEO position is therefore not assumed from older directories. Previously Humana chief technology officer, he combines healthcare technology and behavioral-health product development. Published biographies report a Northwestern master’s degree in predictive analytics, Duke MBA and Louisville management/computer-information-systems degree. SEC filings also identify him as a historical BehaVR director.

RealizedCare is the acquired immersive digital-therapeutics business built around BehaVR, OxfordVR and Fern Health. Its products combine virtual reality, cognitive behavioral approaches and biopsychosocial care for chronic pain and behavioral-health conditions, with AI-supported care triage described by its acquirer. Historical BehaVR was founded in 2016 and filed as BehaVR LLC, later BehaVR Inc. OxfordVR combined with BehaVR alongside a USD13M Series B in December 2022; Fern Health joined the platform under the RealizedCare brand in 2023. These historical issuer and acquisition boundaries are qualified rather than treated as interchangeable independent funding recipients. XRHealth announced the acquisition in February 2025 and appointed founder Aaron Gani general manager of XRHealth US. A September2026 buyer SEC filing identifies the seller as BehaVR Holdings Inc. (RealizedCare) and reports stock consideration for an asset purchase. That noncash transaction and a separately filed XRHealth loan are not represented as new RealizedCare financing. Current standalone leadership could not be verified from the inaccessible current company site; attached public leadership and scientific advisory affiliations are expressly historical or source-dated. Verified financing includes a partial USD500K debt securities sale disclosed in2018, an adviser-confirmed completed USD10M2020SeriesA (with an earlier partial SEC disclosure qualified), and an actual USD13M2022SeriesB. Funding targets, undisclosed additional financing reported retrospectively, contingent licensing payments and academic research budgets are not added as cash raised. OxfordVR’s separate precombination capital history remains a distinct issuer research task. The 2021 Sumitomo digital-therapeutics licensing programme is qualified as a commercial development arrangement. FDA Breakthrough Device designation for OxfordVR technology is not FDA marketing approval.

Tom Lounibos is a technology entrepreneur and former Accenture Ventures leader. Accenture’s March5,2020 announcement appointed him managing director after founding six software startups, taking Knowledgeware and Sagent public and selling SOASTA to Akamai. His own2026 professional statement describes having run Accenture Ventures during2019–2026, while the formal appointment announcement is dated2020; those different historical references are retained without inventing a joining day. He is not listed as the current global lead following Chris Sytsma’s September2026 appointment.

Jonathan Floyd is an Accenture corporate-development professional and the predecessor acknowledged by incoming Accenture Ventures global lead Chris Sytsma in September2026. That announcement credits his leadership over the preceding year; the exact tenure days are not published. His public professional profile identifies Accenture in San Francisco and Notre Dame Mendoza business-school education. His historical unit leadership is distinguished from the new current lead and from same-named healthcare and industrial professionals.

Venkatesh Bode is an Accenture finance professional whose own public biography identifies corporate-development and service-pricing experience in Bengaluru. His public profile lists B.M.S. College of Engineering. Incoming global lead Chris Sytsma names him in the September2026 Accenture Ventures team, and dated colleague transaction announcements corroborate corporate-development work. A precise current grade and individual portfolio board memberships are unpublished in the accessible primary sources.

Alan Goff works on venture investing and joint go-to-market strategy at Accenture, as described in his own public professional biography. His2026 first-person post describes leading his first official investment work on XBOW, and later activity discusses the Within investment with Swen Mehta. His profile lists the University of Texas at Austin. Incoming global lead Chris Sytsma names him as an Accenture Ventures team member; a precise employment grade or portfolio board position is not inferred.

Dujon C. Smith is an Accenture Ventures investment professional named on the September2026 team. His own April2026 post describes a decade at Accenture and leading investments in software businesses. He previously built and led the Accenture Founders Development Program; that programme affiliation is dated rather than assumed to retain an unchanged2026 mandate. Northwestern Pritzker School of Law’s own2024 alumni profile verifies his2022 Master of Science in Law, founder-support work and original named portrait.

Eleanor Facey is named as an Accenture Ventures team member in incoming global lead Chris Sytsma’s September2026 public announcement. Her public professional biography identifies a Stanford degree in Science, Technology and Society and prior Dangerous Ventures experience. An older profile employer heading is not treated as evidence against the more recent explicitly named team announcement. No precise investment grade, board membership or personal investment is inferred.

Adriane Harrington is an investment lead at Accenture Ventures, as labelled on her current first-person professional posts. Her public biography describes venture investing and innovation operations. Her2026 posts discuss General Robotics and Iridius AI investments and strategic enterprise collaboration. Her public profile lists Columbia Business School executive education in venture capital and private equity. She is distinct from the same-named Virginia religious educator.

Amanda McBride Wilk leads Accenture Ventures investments in supply chains, manufacturing and physical AI, as described in her current first-person professional posts. Her March2026 announcement describes building and leading the global minority-equity investment team. Her public profile lists Babson College and a background in startup ecosystems and go-to-market strategy. The genuine portrait is published with her full name and venture-capital background by her own affiliated Tim Garrity real-estate team; it does not imply that real-estate team is part of Accenture.

Brittany Phillips is an Accenture Ventures investment professional named by the unit’s incoming global lead in September2026. Her own public posts describe working on investments in Looking Glass, QuSecure and cybersecurity companies, with Project Spotlight participation. Her professional profile identifies Accenture, the San Francisco Bay Area and Duke Fuqua. The precise current grade is not exposed by the accessible primary profile, so secondary title variants are not imposed.

Swen Mehta is a principal director at Accenture Ventures whose own public biography describes building an agentic-AI initiative. He works with emerging technology companies on enterprise partnerships and commercial growth; his first-person September2026 activity discusses the Within investment. His public profile lists industrial-management study at the National Institute of Industrial Engineering. Commercial partnership anecdotes do not establish individual equity ownership or portfolio board seats.

Chris Sytsma is the global lead of Accenture Ventures, appointed in September2026 according to his own public announcement, reproduced with author attribution in professional reaction feeds and corroborated by the Andersen Alumni Association. His public professional profile identifies Accenture in Philadelphia and a Cornell Johnson graduate management education. His public activity covers corporate development and strategic technology transactions. He is distinct from the same-named Marsh McLennan executive and Dutch hospital professional.

Accenture Ventures is Accenture’s corporate venture investment and startup-engagement unit, launched in2015. It makes strategic minority equity investments in enterprise-relevant emerging technologies and supports portfolio companies through access to Accenture expertise, clients and commercial partnerships. Its AI and deep-technology relevance includes agentic AI, physical AI and robotics, cybersecurity and post-quantum cryptography, enterprise software and AI-enabled life sciences. Its direct neuroscience-adjacent investment evidence includes BehaVR’s virtual-reality mental and behavioral healthcare platform; clinical product claims remain issuer statements rather than independently established effectiveness. The retained Accenture parent profile and Investor3610 remain separate and unchanged. This record represents the explicitly named corporate investment unit, not a newly inferred standalone corporation, licensed AIFM or undisclosed deal SPV. Accenture’s own December13,2022 announcement expressly says its BehaVR strategic investment was made through Accenture Ventures. Incoming leader Chris Sytsma’s September2026 first-person announcement names eight colleagues and acknowledges predecessor Jonathan Floyd. Historical Tom Lounibos leadership is retained separately; the former Ventures directory redirects to a broader innovation page, whose other parent innovation leaders are not automatically cloned into this unit. Public sources support nine current named unit people plus two qualified former leaders. Accessible primary headshots are saved when authentically caption-bound; unpublished or access-blocked photographs remain explicit gaps. The current innovation page describes a USD250M managed investment programme and70-plus active investments; programme capacity is not treated as an external LP cash close, and no portfolio-company ticket is inferred from that number. Project Spotlight is a startup investment/engagement programme, not an independently established legal LP fund. Portfolio membership and corporate strategic-investment announcements establish backing only to their stated extent, without inferred round dates, valuations-as-cash, ticket allocations, board memberships or personal investments.
