Liberty Ventures Podcast with Alexander McCobin

Welcome to the Liberty Ventures podcast where we explore entrepreneurship, investing, and liberty to empower you to create meaningful impact.
Join me as I interview accomplished guests to uncover their strategies to overcome challenges, achieve growth, and leave a lasting legacy.
For our first episode, I have on the show the brilliant Avik Roy, the President of FreeOpp.
In this fascinating conversation, Avik shares his unique career journey from molecular biology to medicine, hedge fund investing, politics, and now public policy.
We explore how the data-driven approach from hedge fund investing is crucial to helping one be a contrarian, independent thinker in today’s world. And most importantly, to be not just contrarian, but RIGHT.
He shares insights from his work advocating for reopening schools during the COVID-19 pandemic to expanding Medicaid coverage, demonstrating how numbers can indeed speak volumes.
Tune in for some invaluable advice for entrepreneurs and investors on leveraging a data-driven mindset for success.
