Bruce Armstrong is an Operating Partner at Khosla Ventures, one of Silicon Valley's most prominent deep-tech venture firms, where he focuses on enterprise technology and digital healthcare. A rare breed of operator-turned-investor, Armstrong brings over 25 years of hands-on leadership at the helm of enterprise software companies - from being one of Teradata's first 20 employees to CEO stints at KNOVA Software, Kickfire, and PivotLink - giving him a founder's instincts on board seats at companies like GitLab (IPO 2021), Cylance (acquired by BlackBerry), SingleStore, and Vectra. When he's not sourcing the next breakout enterprise deal, he's logging podium finishes in mountain bike races or seeing 50+ bands annually at San Francisco's Outside Lands festival.
