Joanne Chen
Overview
Joanne’s passion for technology developed early, when her mathematician dad and computer scientist mom taught her how to program. By the time she was nine years old, she had turned her skills into a business and made her first webpage for a client. Joanne began her career as an engineer at Cisco Systems and later co-founded a mobile gaming company. Joanne was on the boards of TubiTV (acquired by Fox for $500m) and Mya (acquired by Stepstone), and is currently on the board of and/or invested in Tonkean, Jasper.AI, SafelyYou, EraDB, CaptivateIQ, Oasis Labs, Watchful and others. Joanne studies the impact of AI on the enterprise and invests in AI-first B2B applications and data platforms that are the building blocks of the automated enterprise. She has shared her learnings as a featured speaker at conferences including CES, SXSW, WebSummit, and has spoken about the impact of AI on society in her TED talk “Confessions of an AI Investor.”
