David Jones Jr.
Board ChairDavid Jones Jr.
David A. Jones, Jr. is one of the leading venture capitalists in mid-America and a well-respected voice in healthcare business and innovation. He co-founded Chrysalis Ventures in 1993 in Louisville, KY in the belief that focused financing for entrepreneurs was lacking “between the coasts.” This belief arose early, as he watched his father found and lead Humana Inc. – whose board he joined when the company exited its industry-leading hospital business and re-invented itself as an insurer. He was initially elected to the Board in May 1993 and served as Chairman of the Board of the company from April 2005 through August 2010, and Vice Chairman of the Board from September 1996 through April 2005.
He’s continued to serve on Humana’s board, chairing it through the founders’ transition and now leading its governance committee.
In his personal and civic time, David is engaged in preserving, and learning to play, American roots music; supporting student-focused improvement in public education; and rejuvenating local journalism.
David has a BA from Yale University and JD from Yale University Law School.
