What does it take to move from cutting-edge academic research to launching a biotech company that could transform medicine? In this week’s episode of Founded & Funded, Madrona Partner Chris Picardo sat down with Jamie Lazarovitz, CEO and co-founder of Archon Biosciences, to uncover the story behind their groundbreaking protein-based biologics and their unique Antibody Cages (AbCs).

From bootstrapping deep tech investments as a student to navigating the challenges of commercializing revolutionary science, Jamie shares the pivotal moments, tough decisions, and key lessons that led to Archon’s creation. This isn’t just a story for biotech enthusiasts — every founder can take away valuable insights on:

1) Asking for help and building teams with complementary skills — no founder succeeds alone.
2) Applying AI thoughtfully — it’s a tool, not a magic wand.
3) Patience — ensure your foundation is strong before scaling.
4) Partnering with investors you trust and who align with your mission.
5) Setting a high bar for talent and culture — great people build great companies.
6) Communicating your differentiation — make your value clear to all stakeholders.
