Bio

Kevin Owocki is a community organizer, computer scientist, co-founder of Gitcoin, Allo Capital, and Greenpill.network. After completing his BS in Computer Science, Kevin spent 15 years in the world of web2, working in engineering leadership serving as a CTO and founder for open source software and web startups.

Kevin co-founded Gitcoin in 2017 where his vision of a positive-sum ecosystem supported by public goods helped raise and distribute over $66 million to projects in the ecosystem.   Gitcoin’s mission is to “Fund What Matters”, and it has helped to catalyze a movement around the funding of social causes, infrastructure, and other frontier projects.

In the last 8 years Gitcoin has grown into a pillar of the Ethereum ecosystem, upon which hundreds of projects rely on for financial support + for marketing.  In 2021, Gitcoin DAO launched and Gitcoin Grants relaunched as a suite of modular + decentralized protocols.   In 2025, Owocki launched Allo.Capital – a bold new extension of Gitcoin’s mission. Allo.Capital is a hybrid research org, software studio, and venture fund. We are catalyzing a network of hackers, thinkers, and doers, to help fund what matters in the 21st century.

As of 2025, 1000s of web3 project are using Gitcoin’s products to grow their ecosystem with Gitcoin Grants Stack, Allo Capital, or Gitcoin Passport.
