Megan Ruan

General Partner, Gold House Ventures

About

Megan Ruan co-founded Gold House Ventures after spending four years building an accelerator for Asian Pacific founders whose 115+ alumni have collectively raised nearly $2 billion in follow-on funding, deliberately establishing herself as a central node in the ecosystem before ever raising a fund. She operates under a unique structure where Gold House Ventures donates all GP fees and carry back to the Gold House nonprofit, making her role a rare example of market-first social impact where investment success directly funds community infrastructure work.
