Health tech venture firm Windham Ventures named David Kereiakes, a former leader of Renton, Wash.-based Providence's venture capital arm, as a managing partner.
In his new role, Mr. Kereiakes will lead the firm's new Cincinnati office and expand the firm's role in the Midwest. Throughout his career, Mr. Kereiakes has led or co-led more than $250 million in private placements, according to a June 21 Windham Ventures news release.

"Windham has an incredible track record of supporting entrepreneurs with the highest level of integrity and respect. They are truly transforming how care is delivered globally," Mr. Kereiakes said in the release. "My heritage comes from a long line of physicians, nurses, and caregivers, which enabled me to witness firsthand both the sacrifices local healthcare heroes make, and the rigor and stress of their profession. I also recognize the urgent need to support them with innovations that streamline and advance how care is delivered to all of us in our most vulnerable state, and improve the outcomes and experiences for all who engage with our healthcare systems."
