Portrait of Chloe Nguyen

Chloe Nguyen

Based in New York City, working with companies in healthcare, physical AI, and robotics.

Career

I joined Blackstone’s flagship private equity team full-time in July 2024. My focus is healthcare (pharmaceuticals and healthcare IT) and technology (industrial technology, robotics, and physical AI).

My days go to diligencing exciting opportunities in market-leading companies and working with the management teams of our portfolio companies to help shape their strategy, vision, and future.

Physical AI and robotics interest me most: the picks and shovels of the physical AI wave, as well as the robotics companies leading the space.

Along the way, I explored a few paths, and each taught me skills and perspectives I carry into the investments we make and the teams we work with:

I’m drawn to building, and to the operators behind great companies.

Background

I grew up in Houston, Texas. My parents were refugees from Vietnam, so I've always had roots around the world. I speak Vietnamese, Spanish, and Korean, and I'm learning Chinese and French. As a first-generation student, I learned to teach myself, from schoolwork to guitar to the languages I speak.

Michael E. DeBakey High School for Health Professions, founded in 1972 as the first high school of its kind in the U.S., is where I spent half my time in operating rooms and research labs instead of a traditional classroom.

Next came the Huntsman Program at the University of Pennsylvania, where I graduated summa cum laude in 2024 with a BS in Economics from Wharton and a BA in International Studies with Korean.

My thesis on refugee entrepreneurship was advised by Professor Beth Simmons of Penn Carey Law.
