Mr. Sadger will continue to be a partner at Sequoia alongside his new role, this person said.
In 2016 Sequoia folded its Israeli subsidiary back into its U.S. operations. Though Sequoia Israel continues to manage its previous investments for the firm, newer investments in Israeli companies are made through Sequoia Capital.
