The Venture Capitalist Who Is Revolutionizing The Healthcare Industry With Christian Seale, Co-Founder and CEO of Vitruvia

Ted Teo Business Show

Christian Seale is a healthcare venture capitalist who has invested in and has grown over 30 healthcare startups to date, and is also growing his healthcare startup “Vitruvia” which helps its clients manage the daily frustration of chronic pain, stiffness and lack of mobility. As Christian shares, stumbled upon his mission to help transform the health and lives of a billion people by growing healthcare startups after he realized how costly and inefficient the American healthcare is.

To date, Vitruvia counts Tony Robbins, Red Sox legend David Ortiz and actor Danny Glover who is best known for starting in the Lethal Weapon movies alongside Mel Gibson.

Join us as Christian shares about his investment philosophies behind selecting startups to invest in, the challenges he faced growing his venture capital fund and Vitruvia, and the work he is doing by growing healthcare startups to help others.

Actionable Take-aways:

1. As an entrepreneur, look out for investors who can play an active role in your company’s growth. They should be able to open new doors for your company and help you to grow in new market segments or acquire new clients.

2. When looking for a co-founder, avoid someone who is not committed to working on the business on a full-time basis with you because this probably a signal that they are not invested enough behind it for it to success.

3. If your business idea is one that is new and novel, be prepared for a steeper adoption curve and the need to educate the market. While it is not impossible to succeed, be prepared that this may be an uphill battle at the start so try your best to win new clients over and turn them into your best advocates.
