#39 Wesley Chan

Wesley Chan #39 Founding partner, FPV Ventures During the pandemic, Wesley Chan moved from San Francisco to Jackson Hole. He recently made another move, too, leaving his leadership role at Felicis Ventures to start a new venture fund with Pegah Ebrahimi, a former Morgan Stanley tech banker. Axios reported that they were raising $350 million to invest in early-stage companies. “The best founders are mission-driven and behave as missionaries, as opposed to most people I encounter, who are ‘get rich quick’ and behave as mercenaries,” Chan said. Chan’s early bet on Robinhood paid off last year when the trading platform went public in one of the year’s biggest IPOs. Source: businessInsider
