How does a blood-testing device built by a Stanford student become a $7B AI platform? @tanay_tandon (Commure) and Elena Viboch (General Catalyst) unpacked it at DaVinci Café, co-hosted by @StartXMed with @LDVPartners and @pillsburylaw.

Selling into healthcare? Proving ROI to a hospital isn’t the same as proving it to a payer. That was a big theme from Alex Efron (Sutter Health), Steven Green (Pillsbury) and Akhilesh Pathipati (Redesign Health), with StartX Med’s @jayjparkmd moderating.

The part that stuck with us: General Catalyst’s healthcare thesis goes as far as buying a health system. And for Commure, M&A has been a big part of how it grew. Great conversation to steer, Denys-Michel de Larouzière 👀

48 hours left to apply to StartX. As a founder, you know waiting for perfect means never launching. Same goes for your application. We’re not reading for polish. We’re reading to get to know you and what you’re building. Finish what you started: startx.com/apply?s=app_campa…

Stanford students: you don't need to be full time on your startup to apply to StartX. Student in Residence (SIR) is built for founders still in school, and it prepares you to apply to the full-time program when you're ready. Apply to Spring 2027 cohort: startx.com/apply?s=app_campa…
