Trey Ward

General Partner at R7 Partners

Trey co-founded OneLight Labs when he was 25 years old. Launched in 2014, it reached $1 million of revenue within the first 16 months without any outside funding. The software implementation firm’s clients included Salesforce.com, Northern Trust, and US Soccer.

Prior to One Light Labs, Trey was an early employee at Etherios, which was quickly acquired by Digi International in 2012. Etherios was an early-stage company delivering enterprise cloud-based software solutions to middle-market and Fortune 500 companies. Trey led CRM implementations for clients across a diverse set of industries such as medical technology, manufacturing, and enterprise software. Etherios grew from a small team based out of a Chicago apartment to over 120 employees, backed by Salesforce Ventures.

Trey attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and received a degree in Systems Engineering and Design.
