Bio
VP of Investments and Founder champion, Peyton is the deal guru for Traction Capital. Entrepreneurship is in his veins, and he loves nothing more than spending time with Founders working to make their vision reality.
Peyton Green is the VP of Investments for Traction Capital. Peyton oversees the entire investment process. In addition, he supports both portfolio company founders and the Traction Capital Partners in long-term strategy, as well as day-to-day tasks.
Peyton has a passion for entrepreneurship that stems from both his experience growing up around the Minnesota entrepreneurs in his family, and his desire to own and run companies of his own in the future. He is particularly drawn to the Minnesota startup scene due to the tremendous opportunity he sees in the region and its underdog status relative to the well-known, well-funded coastal entrepreneurial ecosystems. His favorite aspect of his job is meeting the many talented founders he sees at various events around town.
Away from work, Peyton enjoys mentoring students, golf, travel, the Minnesota culinary scene, and working on various projects that scratch his entrepreneurial itch.
