Description

In the sixth episode of ReBootHealth, I speak with Ray Muzyka. Ray is a family physician turned gaming founder (BioWare) turned prolific investor (Threshold Impact). Ray co-founded BioWare in the early1990’s and continued to work with Electronic Arts after they acquired BioWare in 2008. Ray has a wealth of knowledge in so many areas, it was hard to narrow down the show to only a few topics. We eventually decided to dig into his thoughts on qualities that make great founders and the role of mentors and advisors (all 3 areas in which Ray is familiar).  We end the show with a brief chat about Ray’s love of games and specifically his thoughts on poker. This was a particularly enjoyable show as I had the privilege of diving deep with one of the most knowledgeable, humble, and generous angel investors in the Canadian innovation ecosystem. As always, I hope you find the episode valuable.
