“It’s never easy being a first-time fund manager. You have to learn about the industry, and you have to build relationships with partners and service providers. An important aspect of being organised and disciplined is having a good CRM. We tried several, and I stumbled upon Edda. It was a really good fit for us in terms of all the bells and whistles we were looking for. Being a newer solution in the ecosystem, they understood what we were going through as a first-time fund manager. It’s helpful to be with people who understand what it takes to build something from scratch.""

Finally, we wanted to get Julien’s insights into the future of the VC landscape…
"It’s going to be a lot more democratised. We are seeing a lot of emerging managers who think differently and have different and more “interesting” networks than those from the incumbency. As the saying goes, “we stand on the shoulder of giants” and have certainly learned and continue to learn a lot from the past generation of VCs. But today, there are new founders developing radical approaches to innovation, and you need to have a fresh outlook from this side of the table. VC is going to be more global, with so much new technology, and how we combine technologies, business models, and new markets to build innovations. We need people who come from different walks of life and different sets of experience to truly understand innovation and what the future looks like for equitable healthcare delivery. While people cared about health in the past, the pandemic has made clear the need to reshape healthcare delivery. There could be a lot more healthcare at home and more solutions that are put in the hands of patients and providers in more convenient or practical ways. Combining tech and AI into solutions that fit into our day-to-day life - we call it workflow in healthcare - will really be transformative in how we deliver healthcare globally. Importantly, it also democratises it. There will never be a lack of innovation in healthcare; we need new medicines, and new solutions, to address really critical problems. I’m excited for the next generations of founders who are not just reimagining, but pioneering the healthcare of tomorrow”.
