Joshua Berg has stepped down from his position as investment manager at GM Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of carmaker General Motors (GM).
Prior to joining GM Ventures in 2016, Berg held various managerial roles at its parent company and its security and roadside assistance service, OnStar. He came from law firm Zausmer, Kaufman, August, Caldwell & Tayler, where he maintained a litigation practice until 2010.
Berg engaged in GM Ventures’ activities for almost three years and was a board member or observer for some of its portfolio companies. The unit focuses on automotive and smart mobility technology and its investments include autonomous driving technology developer Nauto and electric bus producer Proterra.
Berg declined to comment on his new endeavour but confirmed: “I have officially left GM Ventures for an incredible opportunity that will start later this month. I will still be [based] in Michigan, in corporate venture capital, and continuing in the automotive and mobility space.”
