  • Phoebe Wang appointed Chief AI Officer at Nuvini, moving from Board member to executive leadership effective March 2, 2026.
  • Wang brings deep AI expertise from Amazon Corporate Development, advisory roles at Andrew Ng’s AI Fund, and lecturing at UC Berkeley Haas.
  • She will oversee AI investments, strategy, and deployment to drive efficiencies in customer retention, product innovation, and portfolio synergies.
  • The appointment builds on Nuvini’s Oracle partnership and existing AI initiatives, including Claude Code standardization across portfolio companies.
  • Wang steps down from the Board; a replacement director will be evaluated in due course.
  • Nuvini continues to finalize CEO Pierre Schurmann’s previously announced personal investment transaction.

Ms. Wang’s background includes investment and advisory experience in applied AI, machine learning, automation, cloud platforms, and enterprise technology across Fortune 10 companies and global AI organizations. Her leadership will accelerate Nuvini’s AI roadmap, enhance cross-portfolio capabilities, and support the Company’s M&A strategy by identifying and integrating high-potential AI-driven SaaS opportunities.

“Since joining our Board, Phoebe has been instrumental in shaping our AI strategy. Elevating her to the role of Chief AI Officer is a natural next step that allows us to fully leverage her deep expertise in enterprise AI, cloud strategy, and technology investments. Phoebe’s leadership will be critical as we invest full speed in AI companies, and scale AI capabilities across our portfolio and drive long-term value for our shareholders,” said Pierre Schurmann, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvini.

“With the support of key partners such as Oracle, we have already implemented a number of impactful AI initiatives across our teams and made significant progress in standardizing AI tools, including the adoption of Claude Code as a development norm across our portfolio companies. Bringing Phoebe aboard in an executive capacity takes this foundation to the next level. Her leadership will help us further institutionalize AI-driven processes, enhance operational efficiency, and unlock incremental value creation for both our shareholders and our clients,” added Gustavo Usero, Chief Operating Officer of Nuvini.

“I’m excited to take on this expanded role at Nuvini. The opportunity to invest, build and deploy AI at scale across a diversified portfolio of software companies in North America, Latin America and emerging markets is unique. I look forward to working closely with Pierre and the entire team to accelerate our AI roadmap and unlock new growth opportunities across the platform,” commented Phoebe Wang.

The Company also provided a brief update on the previously announced personal investment by CEO Pierre Schurmann, noting that financing finalization is progressing, though taking longer than initially expected, with further updates to follow.
