E161 • Jan 5, 2023 • 44 mins

There’s huge value in integrating tech and bio. But many tech entrepreneurs don’t realize what they can bring to the field. Tech entrepreneurs: you can come to bio, if you learn to speak the language. Today, head of NFX Bio Omri Amirav-Drory sits down with his former co-founder at Genome Compiler, and Founder of Mana.bio Yogev Debbi. Yogev has bridged the gap between tech and bio several times in his career. Here’s how to build a culture of trust, leverage your fresh perspective, and build impactful companies at the intersection of tech and bio.

Key Points

  • Tech entrepreneurs can leverage their skills and experience to create impactful tech bio companies, bringing a fast-paced, solution-oriented mindset to the field of biology.
  • Building a successful tech bio company requires bridging the gap between tech and bio expertise, fostering collaboration, and encouraging a culture of learning, transparency, and ownership within the team.
  • When venturing into tech bio, it is essential to work with experienced partners and investors to evaluate the market potential and technology, and to ensure scientific co-founders are deeply involved and committed to the project.
