Peter John Trevisani (born January 3, 1968) is an American entrepreneur and investor, recognized as the founding CEO and president of the USL Championship soccer team New Mexico United.

Early life and career

Trevisani played collegiate football as a linebacker for the Boston College Eagles, sharing the field with notable players such as Darren Flutie and Mark Chmura. He holds a B.A. in marketing along with an MBA specializing in finance from Columbia University. His early professional experience includes a tenure at Lehman Brothers in London between 1996 and 1999. He later established Waybid,^[1]^[2] a company providing liquidity solutions for B2B marketplaces, where he served as CEO. Waybid received backing from venture capital firms including Draper Fisher Jurvetson and RRE Ventures.

Thornburg

In 2001, Trevisani was appointed as the inaugural director of the institutional group at Thornburg Investment Management,^[3] where he managed Thornburg Funds’ international growth efforts. During his leadership, assets under management expanded significantly from $300 million in 2001 to $27 billion by 2012.^[4] He was promoted in 2013 to lead global distribution and serve as president of Thornburg Global Investment’s London office, a role he held until 2015.^[5]

Treventures

In 2015, Trevisani launched Treventures, a company concentrating on immersive theatre experiences. The firm has collaborated with entities such as Area15, Third Rail Projects, and the Santa Fe art collective Meow Wolf. Beyond theatre, Treventures invests in various enterprises including Natural Partners Fullscript, KraneShares, CodaWorks, Patrick's Soda, Venezia F.C., Meow Wolf, and New Mexico United.

New Mexico United

Trevisani co-founded the United Soccer League Championship expansion franchise New Mexico United in 2018, taking on roles as CEO, co-owner, and president. In its debut season, the team advanced to the Quarterfinals of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, led the league in attendance figures and merchandise sales, and topped the standings during the first half of the season.

Following a $4.1 million allocation from state capital outlay funds in February 2020, New Mexico United initiated plans to develop a dedicated stadium and community cultural center. The 2020 USL Championship season experienced postponement due to the COVID-19 pandemic but resumed in July under a revised format. Health regulations necessitated that the team play all remaining matches away from home, earning them the nickname "Road Warriors." They concluded the regular season with eight victories, three draws, and four defeats, securing a playoff berth and progressing to the semifinals before being eliminated by rival El Paso Locomotive after a 5-3 penalty shootout.

In March 2020, Trevisani established the Somos Unidos Foundation, which serves as New Mexico United’s nonprofit branch. The foundation has spearheaded several community programs including partnering with Heart of America to supply distance learning materials to students within Navajo Nation, launching a Diversity Fellowship Program, and collaborating with the Community Desk Project to provide desks for children requiring dedicated spaces for home education.

Immersive Theatre and Arts

In 2018, Trevisani contributed as Associate Producer to the documentary Between Yourself and Me, created by the globally recognized immersive theatre group Third Rail Projects, which is accessible on Amazon and Vimeo. The following year, he received credit for his involvement in Season 1, Episode 9 of the talk show Don't Sweat the Small Stuff, titled "Why is fútbol the biggest sport in the world?" Additionally, Trevisani serves as co-producer of the Broadway play Job The Play, featuring performances by Peter Friedman and Sydney Lemmon.

Personal life

Trevisani, the youngest among four siblings, was born near Boston, Massachusetts. His residences have included Weston, Massachusetts; New York City; and London before he ultimately made his home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He lives there with his wife Wendy Trevisani, who previously held the role of managing director at Thornburg Investment Management, along with their three children. Passionate about CrossFit and mountain biking, he initiated a wellness project named Project 47.

On April 22, 2020, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico appointed Trevisani to serve on an economic recovery council dedicated to facilitating business reopenings during the COVID-19 crisis.
