Healthcare Startups & Generative AI: the Stakes are High 

Special Guest: Victor Wang, CEO at Care.coach.  Host and producer Michael Mann

Victor is CEO of care.coach and led/leads several large awards from US Congress (via Department of Defense) and National Institutes of Health (NIH). He got started tinkering with tech at age six, programming role-playing games for MS-DOS. Victor worked in telemarketing, environmental research, aerospace manufacturing, particle physics, oil sands, medical robotics, and the military, graduating as Wesbrook Scholar from University of British Columbia. In completing his Master's degree at MIT, he worked on NASA-sponsored human-machine interaction research and a clinical study at Brigham & Women's Hospital.


His aging grandmother inspired him to start care.coach, a company that supports patients and care teams to improve health behaviors and outcomes through a unique fusion of human & artificial intelligence.
