Timmeko Moore Love has joined US-based energy utility Entergy as co-founder and managing director of its newly formed corporate venturing unit, Entergy Strategic Ventures.
Love had previously spent five and a half years with US-based health research and care provider Mayo Clinic where she had been seen internally as a rising star.
James Rogers, chairman of the department of business development at Mayo Clinic and Moore Love’s former boss, nominated her for the 2017 GCV Rising Stars award, saying at the time: “Timmeko Love would be great as a GCV Rising Star. She is relatively new to Mayo [having previously invested while at Best Buy Capital]. She has made a big impact in her time here on the Rochester campus.
“We recently moved her to Arizona and she is heading up our activities in the southwest. She leads our accelerator activities across the enterprise and our outside outreach. She is also responsible for our Benefactor Innovation Fund, which allows us to fund clinical trials in exchange for equity.”
