Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKevin Xu is a founder, investor, and operator with 11 years of cross-disciplinary experience building and scaling developer-focused products, AI-driven investment strategies, and bilingual media. As Founder and CIO of Interconnected Capital he runs a long-only global AI technology fund with outsized recent returns while publicly aiming for 30%+ annualized long-term performance. He also founded Interconnected, a bilingual newsletter that bridges tech, business, investing, geopolitics, and US–Asia relations, blending deep technical instincts from a Stanford CS background with legal training from Stanford Law. Previously he led global expansion and partnerships at GitHub and product and GTM efforts at cloud-native database companies, hiring and managing distributed engineering and go-to-market teams. Kevin moves fluidly between policy, product, and markets—an unusual mix reflected in early White House communications experience and later hands-on product management of managed database services. He’s known for translating complex technical strategy into readable public analysis and investment theses, and for treating communities and teams as the product he shepherds.
