For #MemberMonday, please meet Alex Trombetta! Alex, an SF-based healthcare leader, is focused on investing in healthtech and biopharma platforms through Initiate Ventures. 🚀 𝗧𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 I’m based in SF, and have over a decade of healthcare experience across VC, entrepreneurship, management consulting, and life science research.

𝗧𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆 Initiate Ventures is a venture platform that funds and co-founds transformational companies at the intersection of healthcare, life sciences, and technology. We invest in healthtech, precision medicine, and biopharma platforms & services across pre-seed to series A rounds with check sizes between $500k - $3M. I’m particularly excited about opportunities in biopharma commercialization, clinical trial innovation, and the intersection between care delivery & future of work. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘀 HealthTech Hang 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁? VC is all about people strategy, and HealthTech Hang has created opportunities to bolster and build genuine new connections. I've met other healthcare investors who live blocks away but never would have met otherwise, and met more founders than I can count! #MemberMonday #HealthTech #VC #Investing #VentureStudio

About a year ago, I had an idea of leveraging our Traction5 platform we’ve built with Denis Demichev to offer advisory boards to startups, focusing on specific industries such as health tech. This vision took some time to materialize and get fleshed out, and it is currently in an exciting pilot phase. There’s a lot more to learn, for sure. Yet, I’m blown away by the passion and determination of founders and advisors who have helped me turn this idea into a reality. Advisory5 along side Kepler Team recently hosted a Reverse Pitch Challenge with three hospital systems as part of the Mid-Atlantic Telehealth Resource Center (MATRC) conference. We’re also gearing up for our first MedTech Mavericks Pitching event at the IME South Conference in Charlotte on June 6th. It’s still early days, but my experience with Groove Management has taught me the importance of celebrating small wins. So, this Friday, I’m taking a moment to celebrate the progress we’ve made with this incredible health tech community. I am super excited for what lies ahead. #HealthTech #Innovation #AdvisoryBoards #Entrepreneurship #SmallWins #Advisory5
