About Eric Feng

Eric Feng is a rare "triple hat" venture investor who has been a founding CTO at Hulu and Flipboard, founded multiple startups himself, and served as a general partner at both Kleiner Perkins and Gold House Ventures—giving him the unusual perspective of someone who has actually shipped products at scale, sat on boards, and been the founding technical leader before becoming a full-time investor. He architects an "affinity"-driven capital model at Gold House Ventures, deliberately backing founders where there is shared community, cultural understanding, or lived experience, making him distinctive among VCs for explicitly integrating cultural affinity and community trust into his sourcing and support approach, especially for Asian and Pacific Islander founders.

Eric Feng's Interests

What they've been talking about across their social media accounts
  • Deep commitment to the AAPI founder community and economic empowerment through Gold House Ventures. He frequently highlights the dual goal of creating social and financial good, such as when he celebrated the fund's portfolio generating over 2.5 billion dollars in revenue and creating thousands of jobs.
  • Strong enthusiasm for the evolution of search technology and artificial intelligence. Drawing on his own two decades of experience in the sector, he actively discusses new tools like Yahoo's AI-powered Scout and notes major market shifts, such as Nvidia's rapid rise in market cap compared to giants like Apple and Microsoft.
  • Analyzing consumer tech business models with a focus on media and streaming history. He draws comparisons between current platforms like Tubi and his early days at Hulu to highlight how cost and convenience remain killer features, and offers specific breakdowns of products like Facebook Marketplace being primarily an ad engine rather than a shopping destination.
  • Consistently uplifting peers, other investors, and founders within the ecosystem. He maintains a very positive presence by regularly congratulating others on fund launches and career moves, often expressing the sentiment that he loves seeing good things happen to good people.
  • Blending professional insights with lighthearted parenting moments and dad humor. He often tweets about his children's interactions with food or technology to relate to his audience, such as his pride when his son distinguished between Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi, or his attempt to use Gen Z slang like no cap correctly.

Gold House Ventures is structurally tied to a large nonprofit cultural organization where 100% of the fund's profits are reinvested back into Gold House's broader initiatives, making it more like a mission flywheel than a standalone profit-extracting VC vehicle. The fund leverages its Hollywood, media, and pop-culture infrastructure to give portfolio companies narrative, brand, and distribution advantages that few traditional funds can replicate, while plugging API founders into a curated ecosystem that functions as both VC and cultural power network in one.
