Atomico Names Former Uber and Revolut Exec Don Hoang as New Partner

Atomico has hired Don Hoang as its newest Partner. Don will lead investments across both the Venture and Growth stages with a core focus on earlier stage companies. He will also lead Atomico's investments in the next frontier of fintech and mobility.  

Atomico has a track record of partnerships in both sectors, with fintechs including Klarna, Stripe, Habito and LendInvest, as well as SheeldMarket in the crypto sphere. Mobility remains a major focus for Atomico, with early investments in moonshots Lilium and Vay, as well as travel comparison and booking service Omio, and delivery services Zapp and Wolt, amongst others.

Don will continue to build on this track record. His 20 year career spans both operating and investing roles ranging from startup, to growth, pre-IPO, and public companies. As VP Global Business at Revolut, Don led the firm's profitability and strategic initiatives through a period of intense growth, helping drive Revolut's rise to its current $33bn valuation. Prior to this, Don was Director of Business for Uber. He was responsible for Uber's commercial efforts, covering the firm's presence in over 45 countries and 120+ cities, and helping raise over $3.5 billion in growth capital for the company. In addition, Don has been a prolific angel investor in the US and European ecosystem as part of Sequoia's Scout Program. In his earlier career, he was a private equity investor with Terra Firma.

Don will work closely with existing Partner Terese Hougaard, who has a background in fintech investing after working with Stripe and Robinhood at Google's CapitalG.
