I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Managing Director at Argonautic Ventures! I have known the leadership team at Argonautic, Howard Liu, Rita Chiu, and Viken Douzdjian, for many years, as the firm is a significant investor in my former fund, iSelect. In this regard, I will continue to focus on the positive impact technology can have in our lives and in our world, but on a more expansive scale. Founded in 2017, Argonautic Ventures is a top-tier investment fund focused on venture capital and growth equity. Argonautic’s core focus revolves around machine learning (ML) and deep learning as this technology will redefine how the world will digitize and interact with technology. The industries where ML and deep learning can generate the greatest value (and therefore returns) are Construction Technology, Fintech and Computational Biotech. The Fund also has significant investments in Food/Agtech.   I am tremendously excited to join the leadership team to increase assets, expand our investment platform and global presence, and work with our portfolio companies to help further accelerate their phenomenal growth. www.argonauticventures.com.
