Bill Dallas

Bill Dallas is co-founder and chief executive officer for cloudvirgaSM. He is a visionary in the fintech industry, responsible for founding and managing more than a dozen mortgage and financial tech companies over the past 40 years. His first venture, First Franklin, grew to be one of the nation’s largest lenders and eventually sold for $330 million. Other hugely successful ventures include risk management solution, Interthinx, and lending process automation company, MindBox, which he sold for $27 million and $20 million respectively. Most recently, Bill sold a minority stake of his company, Own It, to Merrill Lynch for $500 million.

Although technology has disrupted and improved many industries, the antiquated mortgage lending process remains manual, slow and costly. Along with his co-founders, Bill created the intelligent Mortgage Platform, which leverages data and an intelligent workflow to drastically cut the time and costs associated with closing a loan. The proven system, which has already processed more than $3 billion in loans, is successfully transforming home lending by digitizing, automating and simplifying the process for consumers, lenders and realtors.

Bill holds a law degree from Santa Clara University School of Law, as well as an undergraduate degree from Bowling Green State University, where he graduated magna cum laude.
