Linda Avey is the co-founder and CEO of Austin-based Precisely (precise.ly), a digital assistant for automating routine medical flows and implementing personalized, value-based care.
In 2006 Linda envisioned and co-founded 23andMe, the leading consumer genetics research company now trading on NASDAQ (ME). Her experience in the genetics research industry, and its need for more participants, led to her concept of the 23andMe research model, which links genetic data to health information from the company’s millions of users. This is now fueling the discovery of potential drug targets and landing pharmaceutical partnerships valued in the hundreds of millions USD.

She was the founding independent board director at Rock Health, the first venture fund dedicated to digital health, where she advised startups ideating new ways of delivering healthcare.

To make humanity more human. And to reawaken the lost wilds of Earth. So we, and our planet can breathe easier. These things, which were not achievable before, are now. In our laboratories. Through our breakthroughs in CRISPR and genetic engineering. We are leading the new charge of bioscience. We accept the responsibility. And we can see the light at the end of it all.
