In this episode, I sit down with Thiv Paramsothy, founder of Hera Fertility, a company that’s rethinking fertility care for men. Thiv shares how Hera got started, the pivots they made along the way, and how they ultimately landed on building a platform that uses AI and machine learning to provide insights and support for men’s reproductive health.
We talk about Thiv’s journey from working inside the healthcare system to stepping out and founding a company. He shares candid lessons on iterating in a regulated industry, building trust with stakeholders, and designing business models that actually work in healthcare’s complex ecosystem.
We also dive into what it really takes, from the right advisors to the right mindset, to turn an ambitious idea into a meaningful company.
