Ari Wright

Ari’s interdisciplinary background as an engineer, investor and builder allows her to effortlessly transition across different frontier technologies addressing human health to climate to the built environment. Nothing excites her more than people and ideas that reimagine the status quo, turn paradigms on their head, and seek to generate change and well-being.

Prior to joining Bison Ventures, she spent five years at Braemar Energy Ventures, a $600M AUM early pioneer in climate and sustainability venture capital. She also spent three years leading acquisitions and development of US hospitality real estate at a family office, helping to build out the firm’s billion-dollar+ international hotel platform.

In her spare time, Ari can be found on a Malibu beach or mountain with her dog, dreaming up creative projects while listening to her song du jour on repeat or a discourse on the nature of reality.

Ari has a B.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering from Brown University, a M.S. degree in Engineering Green Technology from USC, and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
