Pat
Dunn

Pat Dunn is a results-oriented fintech executive with more than two decades of experience leading sales, support, and operations teams at some of the most consequential firms in the industry.

Throughout his career, Pat has built a reputation as a builder and a fixer, the leader organizations turn to when they need revenue accelerated, processes transformed, or teams elevated to a higher standard of performance. His ability to operate effectively across both strategic and tactical dimensions has made him a trusted figure in environments ranging from early-stage growth companies to established enterprise organizations.

Pat's domain spans both traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi), a rare combination that positions him uniquely as the industry undergoes structural transformation. He has led teams navigating the complexity of regulated markets while simultaneously embracing the innovation that decentralized infrastructure enables.

A committed AI and LLM champion, Pat has been an early internal advocate for intelligent automation, identifying where large language models can reduce operational friction, compress product development timelines, and create meaningfully better user experiences. He applies the same conviction to Velo Summit Ventures, where AI is embedded into every product from the ground up.

Outside of work, Pat is a competitive cyclist based in Denver, Colorado. An identity that directly informs his approach to building. The discipline of the climb, the precision of performance data, and the drive to keep pushing past the summit are values that show up in everything he creates.
