Gamiel Gran leads Mayfield’s global CXO network, a highly engaged community of thousands of CIOs, CTOs, CISOs and other enterprise leaders focused on elevating innovation and sharing best practices across the technology ecosystem. These leaders regularly share their priorities, insights and innovation goals with Gamiel and the Mayfield team, creating a unique source of proprietary intelligence that informs Mayfield’s investment perspective and gives portfolio founders a deeper understanding of the needs of today’s enterprise buyers.
A second core pillar of Gamiel’s role is helping Mayfield founders accelerate product-market-fit. He works closely with entrepreneurs on the art of achieving precise—and ideally “violent”—PMF: the point at which the value to the buyer is elegant, certain and quickly realized, creating the conditions for rapid adoption and durable company building.
Gamiel brings more than 25 years of operating and venture experience and focuses extensively on the intersection of enterprise innovation, AI adoption, customer insight, and the next generation of technology companies.
Gamiel is a California native, father of three, and husband of more than 30 years. He loves to give back as a volunteer to his community and to local universities. He frequently supports students and founders who want to turn ideas into businesses.
