Charlotte Shropshire

Charlotte joins Menlo Ventures as Head of Investor Relations where she manages investor communications and partnerships, and leads fundraising and capital formation for the firm.

Charlotte works in lockstep with our Limited Partners (LPs) around the globe. She believes in working collaboratively and cross-functionally, and has honed her approach to working with LPs through many years in private and public equity and venture capital. At Menlo, she’s excited to engage the investment, finance, legal and marketing teams to strategically drive firm growth and champion Menlo’s core values to our new and existing LP base.

Charlotte is highly qualified to lead the investor relations function at Menlo. She comes from SVB Capital, where she oversaw their direct venture strategies. Prior to that, Charlotte had her own company advising both public and private equity funds on how to attract capital. She worked with many top firms in Silicon Valley where she helped craft strategy and branding. Charlotte was also a Partner in Investor Relations and Marketing for both Sofinnova and Sanderling Ventures. She started her career on the sell side working at both Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley in the equities division and prime brokerage.

Charlotte has a B.A. from Dartmouth College and an M.B.A from New York University. In her free time, you can find her playing squash or skiing. However, her true happiness comes from hiking with her ten year old Australian shepherd.
