Alphabet's CapitalG appoints insider Laela Sturdy as managing partner

March 1 (Reuters) - Alphabet Inc's venture capital firm CapitalG said on Wednesday it had appointed Laela Sturdy as managing partner, making her one of the very few female leaders in the sector.

Sturdy has headed some of the firm's most notable investments in companies such as Stripe, UiPath Inc and Duolingo Inc . She has been at Google since 2007 and had joined CapitalG shortly after its founding in 2013.

The venture capital firm is independent of Alphabet in its investment decisions and has backed major companies such as Airbnb Inc , Lyft Inc , Zscaler Inc and Robinhood Markets Inc over the past decade.
