In a step up from his previous investor role, Luo will lead investments in infrastructure software, emerging data centre technologies and healthcare.
Growth investment fund CapitalG, operating under Google’s parent Alphabet, has promoted James Luo to a general partner.
Founded in 2013, CapitalG focuses on larger, growth-stage technology companies. In a step up from his previous investor role, Luo will lead investments in infrastructure software, emerging data centre technologies and healthcare.
Since joining the company in 2018, he has led several investments including in AlphaSense, CrowdStrike, Expel, Dataiku and DTEX Systems.
Luo now joins CapitalG’s senior leadership team alongside managing partner Laela Sturdy and general partners Gene Frantz, Derek Zanutto and Jesse Wedler.
Before joining the fund, Luo invested in growth and scaled-technology companies at McKinsey & Company and Advent International.
The news of Luo’s promotion follows CapitalG’s recent appointment of Adam Naor and Monica Plaza as VP of business development and operating partner, respectively, in late 2024.
