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 20 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 8 (Tagbin, Fixnix, Salease, RFC, Drinking Safari, Samajh, Ultrahuman and Julep.ai) of them were direct, where I have access to the founding team.
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.
