Get in Touch

Nowi Kallen is a Partner at Salesforce Ventures. He focuses on multi-stage investing in software companies addressing big pain points, particularly in cybersecurity, AI & cloud infrastructure, and vertical AI. Investments he led include Black Forest Labs, Lovable, ElevenLabs, Legora, Chainguard, Fetcherr, Wiz (acquired by Alphabet), PointFive, Sixfold, and Avalor (acquired by Zscaler). He also invested in Covecta, Contentful, Miro, Snyk, Gong, Aiven, Laminar (acquired by Rubrik), and Monday.com (Nasdaq: MNDY).

Having lived on three continents, Nowi strongly believes that great companies can be built anywhere and is particularly focused on backing technical founders. He can often be found looking for investment opportunities in less charted territories or remote-first companies. He thinks we are still in the early innings of enterprise automation (not least given AI), and is optimistic about how this will transform companies and improve people’s lives in the future.

Before joining Salesforce Ventures, Nowi was an investor at tech investment firm Vitruvian Partners, focusing primarily on software. He started his career advising security and other software companies on M&A and IPOs at Barclays in New York City and London.
