ABOUT BRAD NELSON

I’m an investor and operator focused on building and scaling life science and diagnostics companies from early scientific insight to commercial impact. I partner closely with founders, scientific leaders, and investors to translate market opportunity into durable businesses — shaping strategy, assembling leadership teams, and aligning product, capital, and go-to-market execution at critical inflection points.My experience spans company creation, portfolio strategy, and hands-on operating leadership, with a consistent focus on identifying what truly resonates with customers and building differentiated platforms that can scale.I’ve worked across life science tools, diagnostics, and medical device, and I’m most engaged in roles involving venture building, CEO or board leadership, and strategic investment partnerships.
