George Mathew is a builder-turned-investor at Insight Partners who spent over 20 years as an operator scaling data and AI companies including serving as CEO of Kespry and President & COO of Alteryx through its IPO, giving him unusually deep operating experience for an AI/ML venture capitalist. He focuses specifically on the data infrastructure, MLOps tools, and applications that sit on top of foundation models rather than the foundation models themselves, with a core thesis that durable AI companies combine proprietary data, continuous human feedback, and tightly embedded user workflows.
