Derek Colin is a San Diego–based Venture Architect, technical founder, and host of The Growth Xperts Podcast with 15+ years of experience across private equity (Autotelic Capital Holdings), executive search, and B2B deal origination. Before building AI Growth Beacon, he founded AI Growth Xperts to engineer proprietary off-market deal-flow infrastructure for M&A advisories, private equity sponsors, family offices, and B2B growth teams. He architected AI Growth Beacon to replace stale static databases with live, source-verified owner discovery, carrier-verified mobile numbers, and dated transition signals—backed by pay-only-on-verified-find billing.
