Personal Details

Bio

Greg Shepard is a serial angel investor and venture capitalist who overcame poverty, dyslexia and being on the spectrum to becoming a multi-million dollar entrepreneur.

He consistently contributes to Forbes, Fortune, Entrepreneur, Adweek and The Deal magazine. He is also a lecturing professor at California State University San Marcos.

Greg has spearheaded 12-15 company exits throughout his career. Two of his former companies, AffiliateTraction, and AdAssured, were acquired by eBay Enterprise Marketing Solutions in January 2016 as a part of a cross-brand deal totaling largely over $900M.

The transaction comprised of the purchase and sale of more than 14 companies - two of which were Greg’s. He is also an advisor to the Board and CEO of Pepperjam.

Most recently, he has been authoring a book titled: "Meet the BOSS - The Agile Playbook for Startups" due out in 2019. Alongside the book, Greg will be giving a TEDx talk.
