He's the co-founder and managing partner at Analytics Ventures, as well as serving on the board of multiple San Diego based companies. Outside of his professional ventures, he enjoys watching movies with his wife and kids. Navid and his team explored the world of radiology, from a technology and data standpoint. After applying the same thought process and/or algorithm for predicting space weather, they processed millions of mammogram images to detect cancer in their patients. And it worked... really well.
