Join Sloan VCPE for a fireside chat with Mike Droesch, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners!

Mike is a lead at Bessemer's Cambridge office, focusing on AI applications, cybersecurity, supply chain software, and B2B marketplaces. Bessemer Venture Partners With more than 145 IPOs and 300 portfolio companies spanning enterprise, consumer, and healthcare, Bessemer has backed some of the most iconic technology companies of the last two decades, including Pinterest, Shopify, Twilio, LinkedIn, DocuSign, and Toast.

In this conversation, we'll explore how Bessemer thinks about venture investing at the frontier of AI and enterprise software, where Mike sees the biggest opportunities across vertical SaaS, supply chain, and cybersecurity, and how emerging AI applications are reshaping the way B2B businesses are built and scaled.

We'll also discuss Mike's personal journey — from mechanical engineering at Tufts, to management consulting, to earning his MBA at MIT Sloan, to building a career at one of the most storied firms in venture capital.
