Lucy Leonelli

Director

Lucy Leonelli is an Executive Vice President at the Venture Capital Firm, Insight Partners where she runs Executive Talent for their portfolio of 500+ software companies. Born in 1985, she spent her childhood in Bristol and has since lived in London, Northern Australia, Southern Portugal, Denver and California. Lucy holds a First Class Hons BA in Philosophy from the University of Exeter, is a guest lecturer at Columbia University and a graduate of City University, London in Narrative Non-fiction Writing.

Lucy published her first book, A Year in The Life: Adventures in British Subcultures in January 2022. A Year in the Life charts Lucy’s immersive exploration of 26 British subcultures; it tells of the importance of community in an increasingly isolating society; of the unquenchable human thirst for a sense of belonging; of how misguided our own prejudices can be; and of how when we open the door to others, we might just learn something about ourselves.

Now an avid acapella singer and board game player, Lucy lives in Pleasant Hill with her husband Mathieu, sons Fox and Archer and T-Rex the Corgi.
