Mike Volpe – Board Member & Strategic Advisor

I’m a board member and strategic advisor to growth-stage companies, with over 25 years of experience in B2B SaaS. I focus on partnering with CEOs and executive teams to navigate growth inflection points, strengthen go-to-market strategies, and build durable company cultures.

I currently serve on the boards of Validity, Funnel, RentSync, and Ziflow, and work with a select group of CEOs as an advisor. I have also previously served on the boards of Privy, Attend, and Repsly. In the past, I’ve led teams as CEO of Lola Travel and Expense through its acquisition by Capital One, and as CMO at Cybereason during its global expansion. Earlier in my career, I joined HubSpot as the fifth employee and founding CMO, and then over the course of nine years I helped to grow the company from a handful of beta users to more than 15,000 customers, to create the Inbound Marketing movement, and to complete a successful IPO.

For more than 15 years, I was also an active angel investor in over 75 companies, both independently and through Operator.VC, which I co-founded. While I no longer make new angel investments, that experience continues to shape how I think about scaling companies and supporting founders.

I enjoy working with CEOs and leadership teams on the challenges of growth and strategy, and I feel fortunate to keep learning from the companies and executives I support.
