Kevin Lenane

Who Is Kevin Lenane? Lenane, a former college football player, knows something about shouldering the load. The six-foot-four native of Concord, Massachusetts, played defensive tackle for Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Archaeology. Following graduation, Lenane pursued various archaeological projects but quickly discovered that wasn’t the career path he envisioned. “I took some time and got involved in the entertainment industry,” he shared. “I worked for a couple of TV shows – Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Forensic Files. Since I was always into computers, I wound up doing a lot of the IT duties and editing of the video footage. As a side hustle to complement the low pay, I started a small website building business in the days when businesses were first coming online. I had so much passion for it and success with it, that I left the entertainment industry for technology instead and never looked back.” In 2011, after working in product for several startups, he founded Veenome, a video analytics company that was considered a market leader in the machine vision world. Its primary function was identifying and indexing streaming video content from across the internet. Based on the success of its analytics platform, Veenome was acquired by Integral Ad Science in 2015. A few years later, Lenane went on to found Genamint, Inc., a software company that uses machine learning to analyze and evaluate trading cards. Its AI technology inspects each trading card in real-time and provides diagnostics, measurements and detects alterations or other changes made to a card’s surface. Since his company was acquired by Collectors Holdings nine months ago, Lenane has worked on integrating some of the new technology to PSA’s card-grading process. "I consider it an honor to be in this position," he continued. "I “The payoff on something like this takes a little bit of time,” said Lenane. “Our goal is to speed the [grading] process and expand our fraud detection capabilities without sacrificing the integrity of the PSA brand. PSA has been the industry leader in the authentication and grading of trading cards for 30 years and we want to use Genamint technology to support that. “I consider it an honor to be in this position,” he continued. “I’ve been a collector forever, so this is just a real privilege to serve as PSA President. I’m super excited about it.” As far as collecting, Lenane collects vintage Boston Red Sox players like Ted Williams, Jimmie Foxx and Dom DiMaggio, and took a run at the Ted Williams Master Set on the PSA Set Registry. He also holds the No. 4 ranking on the 1951-1989 Topps Wax Pack Set Registry and actively collects vintage wax.
