Alex­is Borisy, Zach Wein­berg de­but $520M idea for a new biotech in­vest­ing mod­el

Alex­is Borisy and Zach Wein­berg first met when they were each lead­ing a com­pa­ny that they co-found­ed. Foun­da­tion Med­i­cine, where Borisy was found­ing CEO and lat­er chair­man, struck a part­ner­ship with Wein­berg’s Flat­iron Health — be­fore both com­pa­nies were ul­ti­mate­ly ac­quired by Roche.

Al­most a decade lat­er, they are team­ing up to launch a new kind of in­vest­ment mod­el that they hope will help a new gen­er­a­tion of biotech founders build bet­ter com­pa­nies — or, in their words, “free the founders.”
