“What attracted me to Kairos is its revolutionary mission to bring world-changing technologies to light in a practical and lasting manner. The work that turns patents into incubators and then startups is true artistry from a business perspective, and that left/ right brain combination of the work is simply fascinating.” – Andreea Boier, Chief Talent Officer at Kairos Ventures
