show moreAfter graduating with a mathematics degree, our guest, Nik Sehgal, joined Wall Street, spending most of his time working within algorithmic trading teams where he developed his passion for algorithmic science and artificial intelligence.
He worked at Nomura and then joined Cowen & Company, a US based investment bank, where he was eventually made one of the youngest directors at the tender age of 25 and given the responsibility of managing an entire regional division.
Despite his progression on Wall Street, Nik always had a passion for applying AI for social good and therefore decided to leave Wall Street to start his own company, Vastmindz, with a mission of improving health and wellness of the mass population using artificial intelligence.
The company’s focus is on improving the diagnostic process, assisting clinicians/physicians and doctors with the early detection of life-threatening conditions. Nik believes the adoption of AI will uplift patient care, but he also has visions for using AI to make space travel safer through the continuous remote-health monitoring of astronauts and space passengers.
Throughout our conversation, you can FEEL Nik's passion for his remarkable work in the world! He shares advice and insights on:
* telemedicine
* non-dilutive funding
* vertical and horizontal partnerships
* managing the long runway startup journey
* pivoting and reiterating
* listening to customers = your north star
