I'm an entrepreneur and investor in automation and AI in healthcare , having co-founded several ventures, and now leading a group that launches or acquires, and then actively builds new companies.My main current role is the Founder and CEO of caresyntax, a global and rapidly growing data and AI company focusing on decreasing clinical and financial risk of surgical procedures through automation and AI. Caresyntax's clients are health systems, multinational insurers and medical device vendors. Caresyntax solutions are present in over 7,000 operating rooms around the world, including USA, Europe and Japan. I consider myself a"global" pioneer in the healthcare AI space, building teams and products to address problems in various key markets ; also far outside typical clusters of innovation, like SF or Boston: for example Berlin, Istanbul, Tokyo and Sydney. This has been an exhilarating journey, as you get to truly understand that human health and advances in improving it are a universal priority that supercedes politics or any other short-term societal priorities ... wherever you are. I am personally very organically rooted in taking on the challenges of solving healthcare problems through my physician-heavy family and upbringing , but have a deep technical and business foundation with degrees from Carnegie Mellon and Harvard Business School.
