Venture capital. Examined.
1 investor at AME Cloud Ventures, based in Palo Alto, CA with $1B under management.
Founding Partner, AME Cloud Ventures
Jerry Yang co-founded Yahoo as a 26-year-old graduate student and deliberately shifted from operator to founder-friendly capital through AME Cloud Ventures, using his experience making one of tech's most lucrative long-term bets by backing Alibaba early to maintain conviction on outlier founders long before the market agrees. He frequently emphasizes founder psychology and resilience from his Yahoo journey, sharing specific stories about navigating the dot-com bubble and rapid scale as coaching moments with early-stage teams while positioning himself as a long-term sounding board rather than a boardroom enforcer.
