About Divesh Makan

Divesh Makan is a founding partner of ICONIQ Capital, which he co-founded in 2011 in San Francisco after prior roles at Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and Accenture. ICONIQ is described as a family-office-style platform that advises and invests for influential families and organizations, with direct investing across technology growth equity, venture capital, and real estate opportunities. Public descriptions point to a strategy centered on partnering with entrepreneurs and building resilient portfolios, but I could not verify clear public data on stage focus by exact check size or lead/follow patterns. Named portfolio or investment references tied to ICONIQ and Makan include Facebook/Meta, Stripe, Airbnb, and Snowflake, though the sources available here do not cleanly attribute each investment to him personally. He has also been linked to ICONIQ Growth, the firm’s venture arm, which was launched in 2013. In public appearances, Makan has emphasized AI, ICONIQ’s community, and collaborative philanthropy.
