Biography
Mr. Colin Beirne is the Founder and serves as Partner at Two Sigma Ventures. Mr. Beirne also serves as a Board Member at Clara Insurance and Formlogic. Though he never got any good at programming, he has spent his career working on the business side at and for technology companies. He joined Two Sigma in 2005 to try to help the company grow in a variety of ways, and in 2011 started building Two Sigma Ventures. Before 2005, he was a technology investment banker and corporate strategist and first came to New York to spend a summer working at Doubleclick. He was born in Dublin, Ireland, and moved to the Bay Area at age 8, which helped to accelerate their technology fanboy tendencies.
