Colin Burke McClure, Senior Partner at BlueConnect Partners

Colin Burke McClure is a technology executive with 25 years of experience across consumer electronics, IoT, and SaaS, spanning the full arc from product strategy and go-to-market execution to hands-on technical leadership. As a Senior Partner at BlueConnect Partners, Colin brings a rare combination of product vision, marketing acumen, and operational rigor to every client engagement — the kind of end-to-end perspective that comes from having built products, launched brands, and run the infrastructure behind them.

Background

Colin has held senior leadership roles at some of the most recognizable names in consumer technology, including Monster Cable, Niveus Media, Atlona, and MiOS. Across these roles, he has driven product strategy, market positioning, and innovation initiatives for companies operating at the intersection of consumer electronics and the connected home.

Approach

What distinguishes Colin’s work is a willingness to operate at every altitude a client engagement requires — from boardroom strategy down to the technical execution that makes strategy real. At BlueConnect, this shows up as a practice of rolling up his sleeves alongside clients: auditing infrastructure, hardening security postures, untangling operational bottlenecks, and building the systems that let growing organizations scale safely. This hands-on execution model reflects BlueConnect’s broader philosophy — that real value comes not from predicting where technology is headed, but from doing the work to get organizations there.

Focus Areas

  • Product strategy and go-to-market execution
  • IoT and connected home technology
  • Technology and security infrastructure
  • Operational scaling for growth-stage technology companies
  • Client-side execution and hands-on delivery

Personal

When he’s not working, you’ll find Colin behind a camera, mixing a cocktail, or arguing the merits of a good Cabernet Franc — he’s as serious about firearms and photography as he is about wine. He logs his miles training for half marathons and puts in the gym work to back it up, and he channels some of that same energy into serving as Chair of the Emeryville Park and Recreation Committee. But the real center of gravity is home: his wife Amy, their scene-stealing French Bulldog Huxley, and their three kids — Ashley, James, and Emily — who keep life full, loud, and exactly the way he likes it.
