Bio
Mallun is the founder of Operator Collective, a fund and the dream community of Operator LPs created to open the venture ecosystem to the people it needs most: tech leaders from diverse backgrounds with deep, present-day experience building the most successful companies in the world. Its LPs include 150+ ultra-talented operators who have decades of experience building, growing, and running the world’s most admired companies - from Salesforce, Stripe, and Zoom to Cloudflare, Confluent and beyond.
Mallun previously founded/built up three additional category-creating companies, each with vibrant communities, including venture-backed RPX Corp ($0 to $100M & IPO in 3 years), SaaStr (the world’s largest b2b software community), and ChIPsNetwork.org (4,000 members and 20 worldwide chapters). She is a board director of Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG) and a former board director of the public media organization, KQED.
