Barb, No stock, private with that nice chunk of change from the VCs. TRulia sold for $2.5 billion stock for stock to Zillow, so Sami is not hurting.

Quote:
My career advise to self (and to founders contemplating starting a company) is to always ask two questions:
Do I understand the true purpose of the company I’m starting / joining?
Does that purpose resonate at some deeper level than just making a buck or only provide momentary excitement?
If the answer is an obvious Yes, magic can happen. I call this alignment Profits Fuel Purpose and I believe it’s a perfect foundation for a long-term success as a for-profit company . That’s how we set up our purpose and business model at Virta Health from day one.

As you said, this is an impressive board, team members, research, everything about the roll out classy and able to be scaled up. Reaching out to companies, healthcare systems, insurance companies too, not just individuals. |
