🧬 How Curiosity Creates Breakthroughs in AI, Data & Biotech | Caleb Appleton (Part 4/4)

In this episode of The Biotech Startups Podcast, Partner at Bison Ventures, Caleb Appleton shares how Bison Ventures is rethinking biotech investing through “TechBio,” backing revenue-generating platforms that validate product-market fit like software rather than relying solely on therapeutic risk. He lays out a practical framework for data platform founders—when to sell their technology versus build drugs—using examples like Eikon Therapeutics’ in-house super-resolution microscopy and Vivodyne’s ambition to become the “AWS of biology.” Caleb also reflects on how leading a turnaround at TuneIn made him more empathetic to founders and explains why, amid exuberance in physical world AI and tougher biotech markets, teams must identify their superpower and double down on it instead of trying to be everything at once.
