Brian Bergeron is a finance and operations partner with over two decades of experience turning strategy into measurable value for growth-stage and private equity-backed businesses. He has led cross-functional teams across IT, hardware, SaaS, call centers, HR and legal, and has steered multiple M&A, debt and capital transactions from diligence through integration. As a former CEO/President and CFO/COO he combines hands-on operational execution with deep financial rigor—skills sharpened at exits including sales to McCarthy Capital and Securus Technologies. Based in Houston, he brings sector breadth spanning software, retail, government contracting and corrections, and a strong track record working with private equity sponsors. Unusually for a deal-focused operator, he also contributes technical work as a full-stack developer to notable open-source projects like Azure Data Studio, reflecting a practical fluency in product and engineering. He holds an MBA in Accounting and Finance from the University of Houston and is known for translating complex business strategies into pragmatic operational plans.
