Point72 Ventures

Kevin Berardinelli

Kevin Berardinelli is the Head of Portfolio at Point72 Ventures, focused on helping portfolio companies solve problems, grow faster, and enjoy the journey.

Kevin joined Point72 Ventures from Plaid, where he was the first dedicated growth hire. Prior to Plaid, Kevin led portfolio management at In-Q-Tel, the strategic investment arm of the CIA and the U.S. Intelligence Community. In his role at In-Q-Tel, he was responsible for managing portfolio company relationships and ensuring the successful delivery of technology solutions to meet U.S. Intelligence Community needs. 

The best work comes from original minds coming together.

I like finding opportunities to bring unexpected people together to solve impactful problems.

My enneagram is a Type 2 (Helper) and Type 3 (Achiever).

Put simply: I love fulfilling work and making work fulfilling for others. 

Small talk cheat sheet:

Winding career paths, 90s music, painting, camping, gardening, funny product ideas — where can I get a shirt with 100s of buttons, or a massive dispenser of dental floss?
