Paul Blavin, Co-Founder of Mercy BioAnalytics, from managing over $2B to a a novel cancer detection!

from Legends N Leaders · host Ben Weiss

Paul has created one of the most forward thinking cancer detection companies that raised a $41M Series A because it has a disruptive manner to detect cancer far sooner than many industry standards. While some are focused on curing cancer when it has tragically spread, Paul took a different approach to the problem. He realized that a substantial portion of today's cancer could be prevented if it was discovered in an earlier stage yet the discovery manners needed improvements and were lacking. Mercy BioAnalytics focuses on a liquid biopsy for extracellular vesicles as valuable detection information can be found. Paul previously grew his own fund from $3.2M to $2.2B but decided he wanted a change in life so ended it and became involved in social issues. He helped create a song around protecting students in college campuses with Lady Gaga and it went on to get a Grammy, Emmy, and Oscar nomination! He discusses his journey here!
