Show Notes
In 2005, Vamsi started his own company focused on data compliance for the pharmaceutical industry. His company provided technology to support clinical trials to the FDA. "I like to build companies, but I also like change. [After five years], I thought about selling the company and rolling it up into a publicly listed company." He sold it in 2010 and moved to India to pursue new opportunities. While the sale was smooth, there were numerous post-sale challenges. "They basically ran down the company within 18 months."
