A Note From the VCIA CEO

Kevin Mead
June 11, 2025

Dear VCIA members and the captive community,

It has been my honor to serve as VCIA’s CEO, and now I need to share an important update.



To ensure an optimal process to hire the best leader, and to guarantee an effective transition, I have requested that the VCIA Board of Directors now start the search for my successor.

As of now, I have no set date for my departure, as the primary focus is to allow the Board to conduct an effective search process, as well as to allow for the possibility of a transition period with the new CEO.

It is important to note that the VCIA team will continue, uninterrupted, in its excellence in serving members and stakeholder needs. Additionally, the work started at the 2024 Conference on crafting a new and exciting future for the VCIA through strategic planning and the adoption of our pillars of education, engagement and advocacy is well underway and will continue unabated.



The Board has appointed a transition team, and I am collaborating with them to craft an updated VCIA CEO job description and candidate profile. We will share with the community right away when more information is available. In the meantime, should you know any outstanding candidates, they can send their resumes to ceo.resumes@vcia.com.

Sincerely,

Kevin Mead

VCIA CEO
