Background

Juliet de Baubigny is Partner and Co-Head of Global Technology at BDT & MSD Partners. She joined BDT & MSD in 2024 to build the firm’s Global Technology Group, which advises and invests in founders building generational companies. A 2026 Brilliant Minds profile says BDT & MSD’s Technology Fund launched in 2025 and lists investments including Anthropic, Beacon Software, Helsing, Kraken, Project Prometheus, Revolut, and Waymo.

Before BDT & MSD, de Baubigny was a General Partner at BOND, the global technology investment firm formed by partners from Kleiner Perkins’ Digital Growth Fund. Beyond Type 1’s profile says she focused at BOND on emerging technology companies in the U.S. and Europe and was actively involved with investments including Spotify, Omio, Brex, FabFitFun, and Spotahome. Other speaker profiles also list Canva, Genies, Revolut, and Otrium among her BOND-related investment work.

Earlier, de Baubigny spent 18 years at Kleiner Perkins, where she was a Senior Partner. Her work there centered on company building, leadership development, recruiting, compensation, governance, and strategic partnerships for portfolio and related companies. Profiles from Beyond Type 1 and Brilliant Minds list companies she worked closely with during that period, including Amazon, Google, Nest, Bloom Energy, Chegg, Beyond Meat, Livongo, Spotify, Airbnb, Block, DoorDash, Slack, Stripe, and Uber.

She holds a BA / Bachelor’s degree in Business from Newcastle Business School at Northumbria University in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. She co-founded Beyond Type 1 after her son Nicolas was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2012, and Northumbria University reported in July 2026 that she is an OBE and will receive an honorary Doctor of Civil Law for her work in technology and philanthropy.

Investment Thesis & Focus

  • BDT & MSD’s stated technology focus is advising and investing in “founders building generational companies,” with the firm positioning itself around long-term capital, advice, and access to a private network of founders and families.
  • De Baubigny’s current focus appears to be growth-stage and late-stage technology through BDT & MSD’s Global Technology Group and Technology Fund, with disclosed fund investments including Anthropic, Beacon Software, Helsing, Kraken, Project Prometheus, Revolut, and Waymo.
  • At BOND, she focused on emerging technology companies in the U.S. and Europe, with activity across consumer internet, fintech, software, marketplaces, and European scaleups.
  • She has a distinct company-building lens: leadership, boards, executive recruiting, compensation, and strategic partnerships. In her own writing, she argues that “boards matter” because strong governance is the foundation for diverse, sustainable, scalable businesses.
  • She has emphasized network and relationships as central to her work, telling The Information: “I’m all about network and relationships.”
  • For founder fit, her writing suggests she values thoughtful board construction, clear gaps analysis, diversity of skillsets and backgrounds, and CEOs who actively put boards and advisors to work rather than treating them as passive capital providers.
  • She has recently highlighted “AI in the physical world,” calling autonomous mobility one of the most consequential deployments of AI where progress is measured by safety, reliability, and scale.
