How can founders scale frontier tech? Today on Equity (https://techcrunch.com/podcasts/equity/) , Rebecca Bellan is finding out with Tom Biegala and Ben Hemani, the co-founders of early-stage venture firm, Bison. Bison invests in what they call ‘frontier tech’ companies building in the material science, robotics, biotech, climate, and sustainability verticals.
Listen to the full episode to hear Rebecca and Bison’s founding team discuss:
• Why AI isn’t a ‘silver bullet’ for biotech companies, although it is central to modern drug discovery
• Which robotics startups are catching investors’ eyes
• How – and how not – to find product-market-fit when building frontier technology
• When to seek out venture funding over grant funding
