The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Trevor D’Souza and Dan Broderick, managing directors of Mason Wells’ first venture-capital fund, have invested mainly in companies that are headquartered in Wisconsin.

Dan Broderick is a seasoned venture capitalist who headed the Mayo Clinic’s technology commercialization office, prefers suburban life, and drives a truck.

Trevor D’Souza is a computer science expert with an MBA who ran a biotech software company, lives in the city and wears perfectly ironed shirts with well-chosen ties.

Together, they are part of the engine many are hoping will drive a knowledge-based economy that creates more high-paying jobs in Wisconsin.
