Half the headlines in healthcare are hype. But what if we stopped chasing the next shiny thing and started fixing the fundamentals?

In this episode of Blindspot Capital, I sit down with Sergei Polevikov, mathematician, investor, and co-host of the podcast Digital Health Inside Out, to talk about what’s broken in digital health from copycat AI startups to gender bias in funding and where we should be paying attention instead.

In This Episode We Cover:

🟣 Why most digital health startups are chasing performance signals that don’t matter🟣 The VC paradox: how underperforming funds still raise while women founders get ignored🟣 The rise of “AI tourists” in healthcare and why most won’t survive🟣 What investors are missing in autoimmune, menopause, and cardiovascular health🟣 How women-led companies often outperform and still get passed over🟣 What needs to change in how capital flows are structured🟣 Why Sergei and Alex launched Digital Health Inside Out and what he's learning from clinicians, not conferences.
