Ron Antevy

Managing Director, Antevy Capital, Fort Lauderdale

Antevy Capital is a single-family office focused on investing in growth stage B2B technology. Antevy founded the four-person business about four years ago after the $500-million sale of his company, e-Builder, to Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB). “I’ve been able to take my 25-plus years of experience and use it to speak publicly to various business groups, mentor founders and CEOs and participate in nonprofits that support the growing technology community in South Florida,” Antevy says.

EDUCATION: University of Florida (BS)

LISTENING: A podcast called All-In, with Chamath Palihapitiya, Jason Calacanis, David Sacks and David Friedberg, four tech industry veterans who discuss industry trends as well as the economy, politics and other current events.

INSPIRING FLORIDIAN: Peter Schutz. He was once the global CEO of Porsche and is credited with turning the company around after almost going bankrupt. He retired and lived several years in Naples. I had the opportunity to listen to him speak and also to spend some one-on-one time learning from him about his business approach and philosophy. His business ideas were timeless, and he has and continues to inspire me.

MOTIVATIONAL MANTRA
“Put one foot in front of the other, and just get out there and ‘do it,’ one step at a time. Even if you take ‘baby steps,’ over time you will achieve huge goals.”
