Mark DeNino

Mark's venture capital experience began in 1981, when he helped launch a biomass venture backed by General Electric's venture capital group (now Canaan Partners) using technology developed at the University of Pennsylvania. He followed that start-up by joining Ecogen, a Princeton-based microbial pesticide venture funded by Domain and Vista Ventures, that later went public.

In 1986, Mark joined Fidelity Bank to start up and head up a corporate finance activity there. While at Fidelity, Mark also started an S.B.I.C., Fidelcor Capital, to invest in early stage technology companies. After a brief stint at a local financial services firm, Mark joined TL Ventures in 1994.

Mark graduated with a B.S. degree from Boston College and an M.B.A. degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration.
