About Zakariya Kmir
I am Zakariya Kmir, CEO of Biokmir, a medtech venture developing and commercializing point-of-care diagnostics for infectious disease detection. Our work bridges cutting-edge biosensing technologies, international partnerships, and global health equity. From raising non-dilutive funding to securing patent protections and launching a manufacturing subsidiary, I’ve led Biokmir through its transformation from university spinout to a global player in diagnostic innovation.My experience spans leading teams of researchers, investors, and operators at high-growth companies, negotiating intellectual property licenses, fundraising across early-stage venture rounds (Biokmir), sourcing, conducting diligence, and investing in the best talent, technologies, and funds (Plutus), mentoring deep-tech founders on market fit, commercialization, and strategy (UMBC / Startup Shell / L2M V1 Studio), startup concept and acceleration (NSF I-Corps), and economic research (World Bank / USIP). Reach out to me if you’d like to talk about life sciences, entrepreneurship, manufacturing, R&D, tech transfer, business strategy, impact investing, international business law, financial markets, economic development, scientific research and publishing, or anything else on your mind!CliftonStrengths: Input, Strategic, Ideation, Learner, BeliefMyers–Briggs Type:ENFJ
