Cathie Wood: An advocate for disruptive technology
As the founder of ARK Investment Management LLC (“ARK”), Wood’s ARK biography describes her as a “disruptive innovation thematic portfolio manager, mom, economist and women’s advocate.”
Wood founded ARK as a firm focused exclusively on disruptive innovation. As ARK’s Chief Investment Officer (CIO) and portfolio manager, she defined ARK’s investment interests in cutting-edge technologies, including DNA sequencing, robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), energy storage and blockchain technology.
Wood spent 12 years on AllianceBernstein before founding ARK Investment. Before that, she helped found the hedge fund Alliance Capital Tupelo Capital Management. She has previously worked for 18 years with Jennison Associates LLC.
With Wood’s guidance, “ARK believes that cryptocurrencies governed by open source networks enable a new paradigm for monetary systems and mechanisms for storing and transferring value.” Wood believes that the value of cryptocurrency and its market share dynamics will be “power-law distributed,” meaning that only a few cryptocurrencies will capture the lion’s share of the value.
In 2018, Bloomberg named Wood among the annual Bloomberg 50, a list of people who have defined global business. Fortune Magazine named Wood to its expert roundtable in the Fortune Investors Guide. In 2016, she received the “Women in Finance – Outstanding Contribution Award” from Market Media.
Wood has also been a featured speaker at the World Economic Forum (China) in 2016 and 2017, the World Strategic Forum (Miami) in 2017, the Sohn Hearts and Minds Investment Leaders Conference (Australia) in 2018 and 2019, and Singularity University’s Exponential Finance in 2017 and Global Summit in 2019.
In 2018, Wood launched Duddy Innovation Institute at Notre Dame Academy in Los Angeles, which offers educational experiences for young women. Wood continues to use her Twitter account to highlight blockchain projects and NFT artists.
Wood’s dedication to intelligent investment strategy that drives innovation in all areas of technology, including Web3, makes her an ideal addition to the December Benzinga crypto and fintech events.
