Distinct shells carrying a filed role for this person — not every shell they have ever touched.
SEC-verified vehicles of the same sponsor, predating these roles and carrying none of them. The badge counts them; the figure beside this one does not.
Mergers closed across all 5 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 5.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

John Wu is a technology entrepreneur, fintech executive, and lifelong investor who currently serves as President of Ava Labs, the software company behind the Layer 1 blockchain platform Avalanche, which is backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). In this role, he leads commercial and product teams building tools for technology, finance, consumer, and gaming verticals, with Avalanche having established itself as a trusted platform for institutions such as JPMorgan, Citigroup, Apollo, and KKR and boasting a network market cap exceeding $10 billion. In February 2026, Wu was appointed as an Independent Director of Proem Acquisition Corp. I (NASDAQ: PAAC), a blank check company that raised $130 million in its IPO and targets businesses in artificial intelligence, blockchain, software-as-a-service, data infrastructure, and cybersecurity. He joined the board alongside fellow independent directors David Eckstein, Amarnath Thombre, and Andrey Kazakov under the leadership of Chairman and CEO Imran Khan. Wu also serves as Chief Executive Officer and Portfolio Manager at Sego LLC, a position he has held since 2014.
Wu brings nearly 30 years of experience spanning both investing and operating. He began his investment career at Tiger Management before managing a global technology portfolio at Kingdon Capital. He subsequently founded Sureview Capital, a global hedge fund backed by the Blackstone Group, where he made it his mission to make investing in private assets as easy as buying public equity. He later served as CEO of SharesPost Digital Assets Group, where he built and led the digital assets business and executed the first-ever custodied trade of digital securities, enabling compliant token trading of private shares and funds. Throughout his career, Wu has been described as a three-time entrepreneur, and he has previously served on the boards of various private technology companies, often as a minority board member advocating for diversity and inclusion. He was also on the Board of Directors at Alussa Energy (NYSE: ALUS), where he served as head of the compensation committee and as a member of the audit committee, giving him direct prior SPAC board experience.
Wu holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Cornell University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. His academic background has translated into a deep, ongoing engagement with both institutions. He serves as an executive fellow at Harvard Business School, sits on various boards at Cornell University, and acts as an advisor to the Cornell Blockchain Club. He also supports students through his family scholarship trust and serves as a board member of his local YMCA, reflecting a strong commitment to community development, health, and social responsibility. Based in the New York City metropolitan area, Wu is an active public speaker at high-profile forums and industry events, including the SALT Conference and fintech summits, where he discusses blockchain-enabled solutions for originating, issuing, and trading financial assets and his broader vision of opening financial services and products to all.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001731211 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 96 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 45 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
