Jeff Carter

Innovative, Strategic, Transparent, knows how to get the edge. Took the ethic from the trading floor of "My word is my bond" and brought it into practice with early-stage investing. Partner at WestLoopVentures.com, an early stage VC fund that invests in B2B Fin Tech companies. Driving force behind HydeParkAngels.com, the most active angel network in the Midwest. Independent trader at CME for over 2 decades. Elected by peers to the Board of Directors. We remade the exchange and took it from mutually held non-profit, to publicly traded for profit. I was on the Strategic Planning Committee and chaired or co-chaired several committees. When I joined the CME board we were worth less than $1B and had $5M of cash in the bank.
