Profile

In addition to being Founder and General Partner of SWS Venture Capital, Steve Streit is the Founder of Green Dot Corporation and the Founder of Green Dot Bank.
Steve began Green Dot in 1999 and invented the prepaid debit card industry, bringing the first reloadable prepaid debit card to retail stores nearly 20 years ago.
Since those early days, Green Dot has grown from a start-up that began at a table in Steve’s bedroom into a financial technology leader with multiple products, services, and millions of customers—including its revolutionary Banking as a Service cloud-based platform.
Additionally, Steve served on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco’s Los Angeles branch.
