About Bob Bridge
Board Member Emeritus
Bob founded the SWAN Impact Network in late 2015, and served as the Executive Director through 2024.
Bob has a passion for making the world a better place by encouraging the application of human and financial capital to address significant societal and environmental challenges. He has extensive experience in founding and taking early-stage technology start-up companies to successful exits, and has built upon that experience to grow SWAN from its initial seven to angels to over 80 angels today. Bob is a Social Venture Partner, a founder and active member of the Austin chapter of the Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship, and also supports the numerous Austin impact accelerators.
In his spare time, Bob enjoys serving at the progressive University Presbyterian church, doing home construction projects and working with his wife Lynn to operate the Bridge Family Accidental Cat Rescue Facility.
