Bio
Duane Vogtman
I worked under Whitfield's leadership for more than eight years and during that time, we built many applications that have had significant impact in the financial industry. Whitfield is able to look at an industry and envision a solution to improve effectiveness and efficiency, often before the industry itself realizes the need. In addition to providing his vision, he was always available to clarify details and to provide necessary resources to myself and my team. I am proud of what we were able to create together.

I have known Whit for 10 years through my time at BNY Mellon and Protego Trust and his time at Delta Data. Whit is a leader who deeply understands institutional financial services, related technology, operational workflows and implications; and the challenges of innovating within legacy and emerging technology infrastructures. He is creative in his understanding and problem solving for client firms and their businesses. His energy and insights help to challenge the status quo, develop enterprise solutions, and bring a team of diverse talents together to solve client challenges. I highly recommend Whit as a leader who can lead and drive teams and scale businesses.

I supported the funding and growth of Delta Data from a breakeven, single product, installed software company to a growth equity backed multi-vertical SaaS platform. I raised both angel investor capital and institutional capital from Accel-KKR. I helped execute both acquisitions and organic expansion of the business. After a 6 year relationship with Accel-KKR I delivered an exit for both common and institutional investors in a transaction with TCP Capital in late 2021. Delta Data received Top 40 most innovative companies in Georgia under my leadership in 2016 and again in 2018.
