Leadership – The Visionaries Behind Creekstone

Decades of experience across finance, technology, and science are driving Creekstone's mission.

Ray Conley, Founder & CEO of Creekstone Energy

Ray Conley

Founder & CEO

An MIT-trained physicist and seasoned venture investor, Ray brings a unique blend of deep technical understanding and strategic financial acumen to Creekstone Energy. His academic credentials include Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Aeronautics/Astronautics from MIT. Early in his career, he contributed as a satellite propulsion engineer at Hughes Aircraft and honed his strategic thinking as a consultant with McKinsey & Company.

As a former partner at Palo Alto Investors, Ray was instrumental in leading technology investments as the firm's assets grew from $300M to $2B. He also co-founded Oak Hill Venture Partners and has successfully guided over two dozen technology companies.

Ray is an innovator at heart, with contributions ranging from inventing a novel ion rocket engine to research in biomedical science. He is now channeling that visionary energy to Earth, driven by the conviction that the future of AI requires a fundamental reintegration of energy and computing infrastructure.

"After decades in finance and technology, I saw AI's potential colliding with energy's reality. That's why I founded Creekstone – to fuse power and compute into one intelligent platform."
