Biography
Eduardo Saverin cofounded Meta Platforms, formerly Facebook, with Harvard classmate Mark Zuckerberg in 2004.
Now a venture capitalist, he still derives most of his wealth from his small but valuable stake in Meta.
In 2015, he launched venture fund B Capital, with BCG and Bain Capital veteran Raj Ganguly. The fund has more than $7 billion in assets under management.
In 2022, B Capital raised $250 million to invest in early stage startups.
A Brazilian native, Saverin has been a Singapore resident and renounced his U.S. citizenship ahead of Facebook's 2012 IPO.
