Seth Alexander serves as president and CIO of MIT Investment Management Company (MITIMCo), managing MIT's endowment of approximately $27 billion. He has led MITIMCo's investment strategy emphasizing private equity and venture capital — particularly in technology companies — alongside real estate and hedge funds. The MIT endowment's performance under Alexander has been consistently strong, benefiting from the firm's relationship with MIT's technology ecosystem and its ability to access early-stage venture funds. He previously worked at Princeton's endowment before moving to MIT. MITIMCo's investment approach benefits from deep relationships with technology entrepreneurs and venture capital managers who have ties to MIT's academic community, giving it privileged access to co-investment opportunities alongside top-tier funds.
