InvestorUrbint 2019 - 2024Greater New York City AreaUrbint ushers in a new age of solutions by building a model of the changing world, training AI to anticipate future risk, and helping utilities execute the right intervention at the right time. Urbint helps utilities better manage risk and allocate resources through predictive Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovation. It accomplishes this by applying AI to public and private data sets to help infrastructure operators predict safety incidents, and therefore reduce risk by more efficiently deploying resources to the right place at the right time. What differentiates Urbint is its model: it takes historical incident data such as third-party damage, leaks, customer odor calls, and workplace accidents; combines it with internal data such as the age, type and location of the asset involved and external data such as weather, soil conditions, traffic patterns, and urban density (called Urbint’s Model of the World); and then applies advanced machine learning to predict future incident occurrences. -

My passion for technology fuels my investment strategies; and my deep background in diverse areas including IOT and IT systems, AI, data science, streaming media, and open source software are all areas that have helped guide my investment decisions - as the first investor in R at Revolution Analytics, an early investor in neural-nets at Pure Speech, or an early investor in streaming games at Gaikai, I've always been driven by engagement with companies and founders who can bring dramatic change to the future with new technologies.

Software Development Engineer, Technical Marketing Engineer, Sw Strategic RelationsIntel Corporation 1979 - 2007Working with numerous ISV's to help them take advantage of Intel's products and services has taken Mr. Walsh from Portland, Oregon to Redmond, Washington, and then to Boston, Massachusetts. With a focus on Multimedia, High Performance Computing, Workstations, and Open Source; Mr Walsh has helped align technology and sales initiatives across Intel and ISV organizations to maximize benefits for both parties. Some of the ISV's Mr. Walsh has worked with include Microsoft, Lotus, SoftKey, The Learning Company, Red Storm Entertainment, Fenris Wolf, PureSpeech, Lernout&Hauspie, Voice Control Systems, Dragon Systems, AVID Technology, SoftImage, PTC, Solidworks, Moldflow, ANSYS, HK&S (aka Abaqus), and Fluent (CFD, acquired by ANSYS). As Open Source businesses began to have success selling into the enterprise, Mr. Walsh shifted focus to work more closely with JBoss, MySQL, and other open source enterprises to drive new opportunities for Intel and these emerging businesses. The successful exits of JBoss (to Redhat) and MySQL (to SUN, then Oracle) were instrumental in causing Mr. Walsh to look at software businesses from the perspective of an Investor as well as a Partner, and influenced Mr. Walsh's subsequent decision to move to Intel Capital as an Investment Director.Mr. Walsh started at Intel in 1979 as an undergraduate at Oregon State University working with the team that wrote the RMX family of real-time operating systems, developing runtime support for the first native languages on RMX including PLM, Fortran, Cobol, and writing various OS device drivers, subsequently working on Xenix 86/286 and then UNIX 5.4 X-Windows servers and firmware, which led to Intel's first project to integrate a linear frame buffer into the PC architecture, for which Mr. Walsh was awarded the Intel Achievement Award in April 1992 by then-Intel CEO Andrew (Andy) Grove for "Changing the Industry's Perception of PC Graphics".

Investor, Board ObserverBlack Duck Software 2007 - 2018Boston, MaIn December/2017, Synopsys completed their acquisition of Black Duck Software. It has been an honor and an education to work with this great team over the past 10 years, Congratulations to the Black Duck team - past and present; particularly Doug Levin, Tim Yeaton, and Lou Shipley; who each led Black Duck to new levels, and made exceptional contributions to the company during their tenures. Great product, team, and outcome.For over a decade Black Duck Software has been the "go to" partner for enterprises that use open source software in their products. Black Duck's services are used in most technology M&A involving software assets, and help ensure proper governance and license compliance as enterprises make increasing use of open source. Black Duck's developer-focused products help developers discover open source software and comply with all license requirements when they bring open source software into their projects. Black Duck's A-list customers include most companies that have software in their products. As connected mobile and internet-of-things (IOT) devices proliferate, the use of open source software components in numerous devices that today have very little software will become the norm and Black Duck will be there to help. Working with CFO Ken Goldman was a treat at Black Duck - experienced on both the buy side and the sell side Ken could seamlessly move from nuts-and-bolts finance to "what-if" financial analysis and then into funding scenarios and exit-potentials - without ever losing any of the details of each of the discussions - really an amazing CFO and a great asset to Black Duck in his tenure there. Ken will always be on my (very) short list of great CFO's. -
