Peter Hébert is the co-founder and managing partner of Lux Capital, a venture capital firm he established in 2000 after beginning his career in equity research at Lehman Brothers. He founded the firm with the thesis that the most scientifically and technologically ambitious ventures offer the biggest impact on the future, focusing on sectors like advanced materials, energy technology, semiconductors, robotics, and biotech. His investment scope spans hardware, AI, cloud infrastructure, and energy tech from seed to Series B stages, primarily in the United States. Hébert typically leads investments and manages portfolios including notable companies such as Everspin Technologies, Matterport, Bright Machines, and Auris Health. He serves on the board of directors for Matterport Inc., having joined in February 2013, and leads active investments in firms like Avail and Flex Logix. A distinctive point of his approach is the dual creation of Lux Research in 2003, which he spun off and built into a leading emerging-technology research firm while serving as its founding CEO.
