Alison Wagonfeld — CEO
In Feb 2026, I joined NVIDIA as Chief Marketing Officer, heading up marketing and comms. For the previous decade, I led global marketing for Google Cloud - Google’s $70B cloud business, including Google Cloud Platform ("GCP") and Google Workspace (Gmail, Meet, Docs, Sheets, Drive, Calendar). I love that my roles at NVIDIA and Google can draw from my diverse experiences, including several years as an Operating Partner at Emergence Capital, a leading Silicon Valley venture capital firm focused on enterprise cloud companies. Earlier in my career, I built two successful online marketplaces, including co-founding QuickenLoans at Intuit and running marketing and business development at a venture-backed online car-buying site. I also served as Executive Director of the Harvard Business School California Research Center where I researched, wrote and taught over 100 case studies. I started my career as an investment banking analyst at Morgan Stanley. I'm honored that I was named by The San Francisco Business Journal as one of the “Most Influential Women in the Bay Area.”
