Dr. Martin Leon co-founded Triventures as a physician-entrepreneur rather than coming from a traditional finance background, bringing decades of experience as a globally recognized interventional cardiology pioneer who led major clinical trials like PARTNER 3 and helped establish transcatheter valve therapies as standard care. He serves simultaneously as the Mallah Family Professor of Cardiology and Director of the Center for Interventional Vascular Therapy at Columbia while remaining an active interventionist, giving him direct exposure to current clinical needs that informs how he evaluates and supports healthtech and medtech companies.
