Top SchoolJohn Alberg is a founder and quantitative-minded investor with 13+ years of leadership at the intersection of data, systematic process, and long-term equity investing. As Founder & Managing Partner of Euclidean Technologies since 2008, he builds disciplined investment frameworks that embed historical lessons to mitigate behavioral biases. He also co-founded Finpilot to apply AI copilots to finance and serves as an active limited partner at Ascend.vc, linking early-stage venture insight to institutional investing. Earlier in his career he co-founded Employease, scaling it into a $200M acquisition by ADP, and cut his teeth building ML systems at Booz Allen Hamilton.

Less obvious: he blends operator experience from a high-growth SaaS exit with deep systematic investing practice, making him fluent across startup-building, capital allocation, and applied ML.
