Hi! I’m Neil Thanedar.
I’m a 3x startup founder, 2x scientist CEO, 8x angel investor, 4x political advisor, and 3x dad!
In my 14+ year founding career, my startups have raised $20M+ and are now worth $100M+.
I’m still Chairman of Labdoor (YC W15), the independent worldwide alternative to the FDA.
This is my official website where I share my ideas, notes, podcasts, and videos.
I’m active in politics as Executive Director of the Michigan Campaign Finance Network.
I’m also a super active dad of three (two boys and a girl) and love coaching my kids!
I’m publishing my first book this year, Positive Politics, on how to get into politics — and do good!
Working with Scribe Media as my publisher. Positive Politics will be in stores on November 11, 2025!
