Kevin Grant

Bio:  Identifying a market need to facilitate the veterinary communications from clinics to suppliers in 2009, Kevin Grant co-founded VetEnvoy, Inc. with fellow entrepreneurs Michael Fletcher and David Hunt (who manage a similar venture in Europe). Before joining LiveTime, Kevin managed executive-level business partnerships as Alliances Partner for IDEXX Laboratories, the global leader in veterinary diagnostics. From 2006 to 2008, Mr. Grant managed strategic relationships for the global biotechnology and informatics company, Invitrogen (now part of Life Technologies). Prior to Invitrogen, Kevin held various business development and relationship management roles in the ITC space (xwave), publishing industry (RR Donnelley), healthcare (HCR ManorCare) and the nonprofit sector (The Kennedy Foundation—Special Olympics International). Kevin’s first entrepreneurial venture was Maine-based The Cotton Bow Company which he co-founded with a serial entrepreneur friend. The company manufactured bow ties and sold them to haberdasheries and specialty clothing stores across New England.
