Investors & Partners at GSV Ventures

Deborah Quazzo

Managing Partner, GSV Ventures

Deborah Quazzo built her investing career by identifying human capital as an under-served part of the growth economy more than 25 years ago while at Merrill Lynch, long before edtech became a mainstream VC category. She co-founded and scaled the ASU+GSV Summit from around 350 people in conference rooms at ASU to a global 7,000-person leadership gathering, deliberately bringing together edtech founders, educators, workforce executives, philanthropists, and policymakers to create deals and collaborations rather than just writing checks.
