Logan Green, co-founder and chairman of Lyft, has joined venture capital firm Autotech Ventures as a venture partner.

In a news release, Autotech said Green’s “experience in leading Lyft from inception through hypergrowth and his vision for more equitable and efficient transportation solutions will be invaluable” as Autotech continues to identify and support startups in transportation.

In March 2023, Green stepped back from his day-to-day responsibilities as Lyft’s CEO and moved into the role of chairman of its board of directors. He also serves on the board of eBay Inc.

“The electrification and autonomous tidal wave is just beginning to form,” Green said, “and the implications will reshape our lives, our cities and our transportation systems.

“Autotech Ventures has the best transportation-focused ecosystem in the industry. I’m looking forward to being a part of it and working with the next generation of world-changing founders who are building the future of transportation.”

As a venture partner, Green will focus on identifying investment opportunities, mentoring founders and management teams, and providing strategic guidance to both portfolio companies and the Autotech Ventures team.

“Given Autotech’s investment in Lyft and working with Logan over the past decade, I’ve seen his passion for pioneering new transportation solutions first-hand,” Autotech Venture co-founder and managing director Quin Garcia said. “As a venture partner, his entrepreneurial spirit and expertise will be critical, especially in our marketplace and mobility services investment practices.”
