Dr. Khatija Ali
CEO
Biosapien
Throughout my life, I’ve worn many hats including several years of experience in venture capital and private equity. I have 5+ years of experience in diligence, capital raising and portfolio management. My adeptness in scientific diligence spans biotech from discovery to commercialization assets, with a strong desire to support for pre-clinical/seed stage assets. As an angel, I’ve made investments into various companies such as Lemonade Fashion, Atiom and others. As an entrepreneur, I have started several companies in the past... some successful and others, not so much. For the past 6 years, I am focused on treating cancer locally through MediChip.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I have served as a board member for non-profits, contributing to impactful global projects such as Habitat for Humanity YP NYC. Recognized with accolades like the Startup Prize, Tim Draper's Competition and Top 25 CEOs in Biotech, I invite you to collaborate in biotech, healthcare innovation, venture capital, and philanthropy.
In my free time (although limited), I love all things nature (rock climbing, surfing, skydiving, snowboarding) and racing cars! I live in Abu Dhabi, UAE and am often found in New York City, NY, USA.
