Sachin Gaur
technology adviser and tinkerer
As someone said there are many ways one can learn. I like learning by interacting with people, reading books and spending time observing things around me. I have also benefitted by mentorship of friends and seniors around me which has accelerated my learning.
I like to solve problems that bother me. My first reaction of solving a problem is to create a project or a company around it.
Problems that have bothered me in past are:
a. Creating Literacy Neutral Mobile Phones : which lead me in starting Mobile Harvest.
b. Preventing Car Theft in Delhi : which led me to initiate creation of Samajh.ai
c. Reversing Type 2 Diabetes : I had started a project for this called as #ExperimentsWithSugar and I managed to reverse my own condition and also invest in startups that are linked with enabling better care of one´s blood glucose and metabolic health.
I have been part of building 5 ventures and have supported 23 deep tech startups.
12 investments were through Angel List (Blueberry, Catena Biosciences, Emigre, Janani.Life, Jar, Noloco, Flam, Oorbit, Atoms, Maket, Wombo and MarketForce) and 10 (Tagbin, Fixnix, Salease, RFC, Drinking Safari, Samajh, Ultrahuman, Julep.ai, Boring Workflows and Unsupervized) of them were direct and Sharetribe through a Finnish Investment platform.
I like writing once in a while and also treasure reading articles from other people. Also, till date I have contributed chapters in four books. Some of the book links are mentioned below:
a. Planning and Designing Healthcare Facilities
b. The Future of Healthcare: Transforming with Technology
c. Innovations in Healthcare Management
d. Bit Bang 2
I have interest in emerging technologies like AI and Multimedia.
In terms of application areas, I am interested in Internet technologies around multimedia / image processing and in general in (rapid) diagnostics in healthcare.
I also want to learn more about climate tech domain but as of today I don´t know much on this domain.
I like to try out new technologies and consider myself an early adopter.
I would be glad to connect with people who want to discuss future ventures or technologies in general. You can connect with me on Linkedin.
