Description

Dr. Misti Ushio, Managing Partner at Digitalis Ventures, joins us in the studio today. Misti’s entrepreneurial journey took flight with the formation of TARA Biosystems, a groundbreaking startup that developed “heart-on-a-chip” technology. 

From raising $20 million in venture financing to navigating the complexities of scaling a biotech startup, Misti shares the highs and lows of her journey and discusses how her talent for commercializing cutting-edge research is a perfect fit for her most recent role as a VC.

Misti offers valuable advice for startup founders on a variety of topics, including:
  • How to put together a board of directors that will best serve your startup now and in the future
  • The often-overlooked impact of branding and business development on a startup's success
  • Methods for reining in the conflicting demands of running a fast-growing startup

Tune in for a conversation filled with wisdom, insights, and inspiration!
