We are excited to announce a new addition to the Meritech partnership, Arsham Memarzadeh, who joins us as a General Partner from Lightspeed Venture Partners.
The Meritech team has known Arsham for many years, and his reputation precedes him. His track record is impressive, having led investments in notable companies like Wiz, Chainguard, Enable, Personio, Axonius, and more. However, it's not just his investment judgment that aligns with Meritech; Arsham truly embodies the values Meritech holds dear.
We are a small, equal general partnership focusing squarely on the companies and entrepreneurs we support. Our mission is to partner with market leaders in markets that matter and approach these relationships with a service mindset. We have seen Arsham demonstrate these characteristics working with him firsthand on various companies and we couldn’t think of someone better aligned with Meritech’s approach.
In our dynamic landscape of late-stage venture and growth, especially amidst the current AI platform shift, it's crucial for us to have a deep understanding of products, market structures, and teams to identify opportunities with enduring potential. Arsham excels in these areas and can grasp the nuances of investment opportunities while fostering the essential relationships needed to partner with visionary entrepreneurs.
Arsham exemplifies our core operating principles and couldn’t be a better fit across all dimensions. Put simply - what makes our small partnership unique and special, he makes us even more so, and we’re thrilled to have him join the team. He can be reached at am@meritechcapital.com.
