Jillian Ward, managing editor for U.S. technology at Bloomberg News, sent the following note to staff:
To all in Global Tech,I’m thrilled to announce that Kate Clark is joining Bloomberg’s Global Technology group as a senior reporter on the Venture Capital and Startups team, led by Anne VanderMey. Kate joins us from The Information, where she most recently served as deputy New York bureau chief and senior reporter, leading the outlet’s formidable coverage of VC investments, tech startups and other news across the industry. In her almost five years at The Information, Kate consistently turned out high-impact breaking news and enterprise stories, such as recent scoops related to funding for xAI, Anthropic and Polymarket, a deep dive on Josh Kushner’s relationship with OpenAI, and a look at US firms’ escalating investment in Middle Eastern startups. Her work has been recognized by SABEW with multiple Best in Business awards, including for her Dealmaker newsletter, for coverage of Sam Altman’s firing from OpenAI, and for her reporting on the pandemic’s impact on startups. She previously held reporting gigs at TechCrunch and PitchBook.
Kate, a Seattle native and graduate of the University of Washington, is a huge fan of Broadway theater, and recently ran her first half-marathon. She’ll start next month, based in our New York bureau. We could not be more excited to welcome her to the team.
