My guests today are Raju Rishi, Nikita Singareddy, and Jason Black of RRE Ventures. RRE is a New York-based VC firm investing in early-stage start-ups with more than 400 investments over its 25 year history. Raju, Nikita, and Jason focus their time in the world of healthcare investing, a topic I haven't explored much personally or on this show. We discuss the current landscape for healthcare investing, the variety of stakeholders in the healthcare value chain, the opportunities for founders and investors in the space, what excites them most about the future of the space, and the impact COVID has had in shaking up the industry. I hope you enjoy my conversation with the RRE team.    This episode is brought to you by Koyfin, one of the fastest growing fintech startups.

Sitting down with this LEGEND led to a MASSIVELY good show, really flushing out a lot of details that I don't talk about often about the advertising industry and the past, present and future of where it's going. We chop it up and take calls talking to publications, and privacy and I talk more in-depth about what I'd do if I were in charge of a large brand. Super fire show here - hope u love it.
