Show Notes

From musician to VC seems to be quite a path these days; this was Gurdane's path while he completed his degree in Computer Science, Public Policy, and Economics from Duke University.

Gurdane shares how he learned the venture business "by doing" with at FundRx, a leading life sciences/healthcare investment and research marketplace he co-founded back in 2015. After 20 or so investments under the belt, they spun of the business to MBX Capital in July 2020. 

Beyond any thesis, MBX's underlying purpose is beyong being a sustainable asset for LPs, but focuses on categories that are underlooked "diamonds in the rough". With 1K venture advisors as part of the community, they rely on many industry experts throughout the investment journey.

Tune in to learn about a couple of MBX's investments: Vaxxinity, which offers hope by developing disease altering vaccines and Contraline, inventing the future of male contracepting!
