TIKI Talk Episode 26 features Los Angeles-based anesthesiologist and TIKI investor/superfan Rikesh Govan!

This is a very informative podcast from someone who didn’t understand TIKI at first, but warmed up to the idea and is now one of our biggest advocates.

Join Shane and Rikesh as they discuss Rikesh’s journey into healthcare, his initial reaction to TIKI, the concept of data donations, the current issues with health data, good and bad health data use cases, the importance and value assigned to health data, DNA tests and biometric data (Apple Watches, FitBit), Amazon’s curious health-related purchases, the CVS and PetCo business models, and more!

Enjoy!
