Angela Strange is a General Partner at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), where she leads investments in fintech infrastructure, insurance, and AI applications in financial services. A mechanical engineer by training and elite marathon runner by heart, she coined the widely-cited thesis 'Every Company Will Be a Fintech Company' - arguing that new financial infrastructure will enable any company to embed financial services the way AWS democratized software. She joined a16z in 2014 after stints at Google (where she launched Chrome for Android and iOS) and travel startup Ruba.com (acquired by Google). She has board seats at companies including Moov, Sardine, Jeeves, Valon, and hyperexponential, and is co-chair of C100, which connects Canadian entrepreneurs with Silicon Valley.
