Meet Our Leadership

Yolanda Fintschenko
Executive Director, i-GATE Innovation Hub & Startup Tri-Valley
As a long-time Livermore resident, I have a strong personal interest in building our local startup ecosystem for science-based startups in the Tri-Valley. I have learned a lot about the importance of community from building a local life sciences network, the East Bay Bio Network. Extending that knowledge to help science-based startups begin and succeed in the Tri-Valley is now my primary focus as Executive Director of i-GATE Innovation Hub through initiatives like Startup Tri-Valley and Daybreak Labs.
My interests include running, cooking and writing, all supporting the same goal – contributing to and building community.
