Paul Kwan
Managing Director, General Catalyst
I started my career on Wall Street as the Internet we know today was taking shape. Just a few years later, I had the opportunity to join Morgan Stanley’s Menlo Park office and thrived there for 22 years, including six years running the bank’s global internet and software business and six years leading the West Coast team. Some prior career achievements I expect to build on include helping Spotify create the modern day direct listing and inventing with General Catalyst the first Stakeholder Aligned Initial Listing (SAIL) vehicle. The SAIL is a SPAC structure that aims to align with all stakeholders.
