Prof. Zen Chu is a healthcare venture investor at SeaX Ventures who specializes in curating ecosystems of medical technology by building dense networks between clinicians, engineers, payors, and entrepreneurs rather than backing isolated startups. As cofounder and faculty director of MIT Hacking Medicine and MIT Healthcare Ventures, he brings unusually deep hands-on experience with early idea formation and team-building in healthcare, while his multi-institutional presence across MIT, Harvard Medical School, and UCLA, combined with living between Cambridge and Bali, gives him a distinctive cross-continental perspective that blends top-tier U.S. academic medicine with global health-tech ecosystems.
