Deep Health Tech: Why 'Dreams' No Longer Get Funded — and How to Build a Healthcare Startup Investors Want

Description

Talor Zaksh, a managing partner at the eHealth Ventures investment fund, takes us into the world of Deep Health Tech — investing in clinical medical technology. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience in Israel, the US and Europe, he explains why the American healthcare system is 'broken' and expensive, how money flows between the patient, the doctor, the insurance company and the pharmaceutical company, and why the era of investing in 'dreams' is over — investors want a working business. At the center of the conversation: the critical importance of methodical product management in an industry that thinks in a non-intuitive way.
