Eddy relocated from Silicon Valley and co-founded Coffee Ventures to tackle unmet needs in emerging markets. The early-stage fund focuses on people development, product-market iteration, and go-to-market strategy. At Stanford University, he mentored at the StartX incubator and was formerly a consulting professor. He has also devised a medical imaging technology for visualizing stem cell migration and therapy.

In his early career, Eddy was also a designer for semiconductor chips at Marvell, a NASDAQ-listed Southeast Asia success story which he hopes his portfolio startups could one day emulate.
