Peter Wang is Co-Founder & CEO of Hypha, an AI-native asset intelligence platform designed for the modern investor who wants to be proactive about risk management across the entire lifecycle of an investment.
Peter brings over two decades of experience building and leading complex product, engineering, and data organizations across AI, finance, media, and consumer technology. His work has included applying technology to healthcare-adjacent challenges through platforms, investments, and board leadership, with a focus on outcomes, trust, and long-term impact rather than hype.

Previously, Peter served as CTO of BuzzFeed, where he led the company’s technology organization through multiple acquisitions and its transition to a public company. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership roles at Refinery29 (acquired by Vice), The Mighty, appssavvy (acquired by ironSource), and Buddy Media (acquired by Salesforce).
