About
Dmitri is an entrepreneur and investor with a strong passion to create solutions for a better tomorrow. After working with the Branson Centre of Entrepreneurship for 3 years, Dmitri recognised the challenges founders and institutional investors faced in closing deals. Both parties wanted to work together but the deals available and terms required made it hard to execute. By creating Graft Ventures, he’s created a flexible workflow to match great entrepreneurs with venture friendly capital and additional management consulting support. His experience spans 10 years in enterprise IT, sales and business development. Dmitri has consistently promoted technology adoption and business development across the Caribbean. When not behind a screen you can find him racing through Jamaica's scenic rally stages as part of Jetcon's Rally Team.
