Kush Parmar brings a cross-border perspective to life sciences investing, having been born in New Jersey, raised in India, and returned to the U.S. for his medical training, which he now applies to building globally relevant biotech companies including India-focused initiatives. Unlike typical VCs, he consistently takes hands-on company-building leadership roles beyond board seats, serving as co-founder, chair, or senior executive at multiple portfolio companies while leveraging his M.D./Ph.D. training from Harvard to evaluate technical science and work directly with founders on translational strategy.
