About Howard L. Morgan

Howard L. Morgan is a venture capitalist who served as co-founder, president, and CEO of the quantitative hedge fund Renaissance Technologies from 1994 to 2014, after which he transitioned to venture investing. He is also an angel investor and author who contributed to *Business Insider* and was among the first institutional investors in Uber. Morgan’s investment focus includes deep tech and bioinformatics, with a thesis centered on globalization and digitization, particularly helping entrepreneurs in India, Singapore, and the Gulf build companies that sell globally. At B Capital Group, where he serves as Chairman, he emphasizes B2B ventures selling into the Fortune 2000 or Global 2000. His notable portfolio includes Uber, which he backed early, and Idealab, a company he helped start during his angel investing period from 1990 to 2004. Morgan distinguishes himself by prioritizing market size as a critical venture criterion, arguing that even great entrepreneurs must target large markets to justify venture capital risk.
