Executive Network

MSIV is rallying leaders across industries and functions to ensure the North Bay’s full intellectual capital is brought to bear behind local founders working to build the next great local company.

Executive Network members are volunteers who are available to mentor Marin + Sonoma founders and to assist the MSIV Fund with its portfolio support and operations.
