About me
I’m Max Malakoff, a relationship-driven professional with a background spanning venture capital, financial strategy, and startup operations. With experience at BBVA, Mastercard, and early-stage ventures, I thrive at the intersection of people, product, and growth. I hold an MBA from Reichman University in Israel and a Cognitive Science degree from UC Davis, and I’m currently exploring roles in VC, strategic partnerships, and emerging industries. I’m passionate about helping teams scale, connecting ideas to action, and building meaningful ecosystems.
