Events & Engagement Manager, AI Startups & Ventures

MongoDB’s mission is to empower innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries by unleashing the power of software and data. We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build and run applications anywhere—on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 new developers signing up to use MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.

MongoDB is transforming the $138B+ data management software market by empowering developers to build the next generation of applications. As the leading modern data platform—and the first database company to IPO in over 20 years—we're at the forefront of innovation. Through MongoDB Ventures, we invest in the most exciting companies solving real problems for developers and data practitioners, from GenAI infrastructure to tools that accelerate app development and deployment.
