Max
Zang
Investor

Shaped by his own immigrant journey, Max is most inspired by quiet endurance, the kind that doesn’t make headlines, but defines lives. What does it take to leave everything behind and start over in a new country? How do you keep building after a failed startup, when no one’s watching? How do the best founders stay standing when the world keeps shifting under their feet? At his core, Max believes resilience isn’t optional, it’s the greatest predictor of long-term value. Markets shift, products evolve, resilience endures.
As an investor at Audacious, Max is constantly looking for that same resilience in the founders he aspires to partner with.
Prior to Audacious, Max graduated Summa Cum Laude from Northeastern University's Honors program and partnered with early stage founders at General Catalyst as a Managing Partner for Rough Draft Ventures. Max also spent time at OpenView Venture Partners, where he invested in early-stage product-led growth enterprise software, and gained operating experience on the Strategy and Ops team at Snyk.
Max is originally from Argentina, where he grew up before moving to the US at the age of 10. Unsurprisingly, like most Argentines, you can find him drinking mate, watching “fútbol", and gathering friends and family for a typical asado, which he loves to cook.
