A Contrarian Mindset: Neil Kumar, Co-Founder & CEO of BridgeBio


Listen Later

In this episode of One of One, Darren sits down with Neil Kumar, co-founder and CEO of BridgeBio, a leading biotech company focused on treating rare genetic conditions that largely affect children. Neil is a deeply contrarian thinker and leader. It shows up in his decision to start a company ten years ago focused on a market that most others ignored, in the unique hub and spoke organizational structure he has built, in the distinctive culture and type of people he attracts, and in his sincere commitment to build a truly generational company.
