Edith Yeung is a premier Silicon Valley venture capitalist, technology executive, and a recognized authority on global investment landscapes. As a General Partner at Race Capital, an early-stage venture capital fund focusing on infrastructure, fintech, and deep tech, she has built a reputation for identifying transformative tech movements before they hit the mainstream.

Before helming Race Capital, Edith served as a Partner at 500 Startups, the prolific global incubator and early-stage fund that backed massive tech anchors including Twilio, Credit Karma, and Grab. Her experience extends deep into operational management; she was previously the General Manager of Dolphin Browser, a Sequoia Capital-backed mobile browser that achieved over 150 million installations worldwide. This technical and operational foundation is further supported by an extensive enterprise background working with industry stalwarts and Fortune 500 giants such as Siebel, AMS, AT&T Wireless, and Autodesk.
On the international stage, Edith is a highly sought-after speaker, author, and market analyst. She is the creator of the globally cited China Internet Report and the chief editor of Silicon News, a weekly briefing tracking Silicon Valley funding and mergers and acquisitions. Recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the top Silicon Valley investors you must know, she frequently shares her deep macro-level expertise as a guest lecturer at Stanford and Berkeley. A regular media commentator for the BBC, CNBC, Bloomberg, and the Wall Street Journal, Edith delivers sharp, forward-looking insights that equip technology ecosystems, founders, and regional corporate leaders to scale, anticipate major market trends, and navigate the intersection of international technology spaces.
