Amr Abdelaziz

Managing Partner

Amr brings transformative M&A expertise forged through orchestrating M&A transactions exceeding $40B in total value, including his advisory role to WhatsApp in Facebook's landmark acquisition and further advising Box.com on their IPO.

As the head of M&A at Equinix, he executed 20+ global M&A transactions valued at over $20B, fundamentally reshaping the digital infrastructure landscape. His strategic approach to acquisition planning—developed through leadership roles at PwC's Investment Banking practice and Connor Group—uniquely positions SV8 portfolio companies to attract premium valuations.

Beyond deal execution, Amr has personally guided numerous portfolio founders through successful M&A exits and IPO processes, leveraging his extensive network to facilitate introductions to strategic partners and secure high-caliber board members who accelerate growth trajectories.

Amr's transaction methodologies, built on scientific valuation frameworks as a Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA), now power SV8's distinctive approach to early-stage investing. By embedding acquisition thinking from inception, he ensures founders build companies that strategic acquirers compete to own, not simply companies that grow.
