Maurice Boissiere is a seed investor at DataTribe in Washington focused on Security and Software. With over 20-years of leadership experience at early-stage venture-backed companies, I've developed a unique set of skills and instincts that I now enjoy using to help founders build their ventures faster. I work at DataTribe, a cybersecurity startup studio that invests in and co-builds startups and teach Entrepreneurship at the Smith Schoolof Business at the University of Maryland. I also serve on the advisory boards of the Dingman Center for Entrepreneurship at the Smith School and UM Ventures' Maryland Momentum Fund.
