Dan Teran

Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Gutter Capital

About

Dan Teran built and scaled Managed by Q around treating cleaners and frontline workers as W-2 employees with benefits and career paths, explicitly rejecting the low-cost gig model, and now brings this good jobs philosophy to his investing at Gutter Capital. He focuses on unsexy, infrastructure-like software opportunities that reshape major industries where technology, operations, and labor models intersect, drawing on his founder experience of growing Managed by Q to a reported $200M+ exit to WeWork.
