Venture Capitalist Milad Alucozai appointed Visiting Scholar by the Regenstrief Center for Healthcare Engineering

July 17, 2018

Milad Alucozai will couple his background in healthcare, business and investing to directly advance research, thought leadership, innovation and commercialization efforts for the Regenstrief Center for Healthcare Engineering (RCHE) and its affiliates. As a Purdue alum, Alucozai is no stranger to Purdue and translational research. As part of his on-campus appointment, Alucozai will engage closely with faculty, staff and students at RCHE and across the university.

 

Alucozai is a Partner at Good AI Capital, a San Francisco based venture fund formed with fellow Purdue alum Darwin Ling, focusing on early stage investments in AI companies. With a mission-driven thesis of doing well by doing good, they invest in technical founders who are keen on applying AI towards solving some of the most acute problems faced across industries. Prior, Alucozai was at Accenture’s Global Innovation Hub co-developing and delivering new global products and services with leading healthcare and life sciences clients using emerging technologies such as AI, Advanced Analytics, Blockchain, IoT and design thinking methodologies.

 

Alucozai added, “We at Good AI Capital believe that the next wave of AI innovations is emerging from areas beyond the Silicon Valley, we aim to establish relationships that magnify the strengths of local entrepreneurial ecosystems and have early access to invest and build the most transformative companies of tomorrow. RCHE along with its research scientists and affiliated faculty all exemplify a promising future for healthcare through their growing capabilities in data science and engineering. With these AI advances in research as well as the emergence of new talents, we are both privileged and excited to be part of RHCE to help enhance and grow these capabilities; sharing the mission of improving the quality, accessibility, equity, and affordability of healthcare delivery.”

 

RCHE director Paul Griffin commented, “Milad’s appointment highlights our commitment towards research and commercialization. We already have had a fruitful engagement and relationship with Milad and Darwin, two alums who share a deep desire to give back. Milad’s combination of technical knowledge, insights, relationships and strong commitment to our shared mission, make him a wonderful addition to our Center. His visiting scholar appointment will continue to enhance our Center’s capabilities for the long-term as well as the Purdue entrepreneurial ecosystem.”
