Matt Angle is the CEO of Paradromics which aims to make broadband for the brain possible, massively parallel brain interfaces and realtime decoding.

With a recent $18 million DARPA grant they are poised to start selling implants soon.

In this episode we not only talk about the technology but also the behind the scenes look of starting a company in the biotechnology space. We talk about raising money and how it differs from an academic path.
