About

Lucy Wang is a machine learning scientist turned venture investor at Divergent Capital who combines an MS in machine learning from NYU with deep technical operating experience to evaluate early-stage deep tech companies at the intersection of computation and the physical world. She avoids venture media hype and instead sources conviction from primary technical literature like arXiv and Nature, focusing on founders with genuine passion for solving problems rather than just building companies.
