Brannin McBee

Brannin McBee studied finance at the University of Colorado Boulder before spending nearly a decade as a proprietary trader focusing heavily on commodities and natural gas at firms like Active Power Investments. This highly rigorous background in navigating volatile commodity markets and executing complex capital strategies provided the exact financial blueprint he utilized to secure the massive, multi-billion dollar funding rounds required to scale CoreWeave's hardware infrastructure.

Brannin McBee is a co-founder and the Chief Development Officer of CoreWeave, a specialized AI cloud provider that successfully challenged the absolute dominance of Big Tech in data center infrastructure. Joining forces with his former hedge fund colleagues Michael Intrator and Brian Venturo in 2017, McBee helped bootstrap the company's initial iteration as a massively scaled Ethereum mining operation. When the founders made the critical decision to pivot into AI computing, McBee spearheaded the company's strategic financing, business development, and massive global partnerships. Under his strategic guidance, CoreWeave secured astronomical amounts of venture capital and forged a highly critical partnership with Nvidia, allowing the company to rapidly expand its hyperscale data center footprint across the globe.
