About Bruce Niven

Bruce Niven brings over 20 years of corporate venturing experience across Saudi Aramco and Itochu, combining Asian trading-house, industrial, and energy-tech investment expertise that he now applies to Aramco Ventures' sustainability and industrial-tech efforts. He personally helped build Aramco's venture platform from inception in 2011, designing their first $500m corporate VC fund and expanding it to multiple vehicles including a $1.5bn sustainability fund, while also playing a leading role in establishing OGCI Climate Investments, the $1bn climate-tech fund backed by 12 major oil and gas companies.
