Grace Ge

Grace is passionate about supporting entrepreneurs at their most vulnerable stage to enable the growth of emerging technologies, specifically around AI/ML, the modern developer and GTM stack, next-generation cloud, and SaaS. These areas of interest are a natural extension of Grace’s work prior to venture. Before VC, Grace was a builder and buyer of tooling for a swath of departments at different tech companies (Google – ML and ops, NetApp – product and sales, eBay – marketing and analytics, Facebook – internal tooling and productivity). Prior to Menlo, Grace was also an investor at RRE Ventures and President of the rising venture community in NY.

Grace graduated with honors from Rice University in Mathematical Economic Analysis and Political Science. She is an advocate for diversity in tech and venture—championing not just gender, racial, and ethnic diversity, but the inclusion and representation of people from different educational and socioeconomic backgrounds. She has served as co-lead of Pitching to the Partnership, a monthly series that connects emerging women in venture with partners from other firms, an advisor to the Board of the Made organization, which supports local startups and founders in New York and San Francisco, and a mentor to first-generation college students through the SWAG organization. For fun, Grace is an adventurous traveler. Her favorite trip? Spending a month in a campervan in New Zealand. Today, you can catch her exploring the beautiful Californian terrain with her husky Max.
