Clinton Bybee

Co-Founder and Managing Director Emeritus, ARCH Venture Partners

About

Clinton Bybee is a co-founder and long-time managing director at ARCH Venture Partners who specializes in deep technical areas like advanced materials, optics, nanotechnology, and semiconductors rather than typical software investing, with a portfolio including companies like Impinj, Cooledge Lighting, and Voxel8. He has established an endowment with his wife Christie specifically to support Texas A&M's Engineering Entrepreneurship Program and actively participates in student entrepreneurship initiatives like Startup Aggieland and Shark Frenzy-style investor events, which is unusual hands-on involvement for a senior deep-tech venture capitalist.
