One of 11 children, Dan Tasset decided early on in life that he would take responsibility for creating his own wealth and designing a life where work was the pursuit of a larger purpose. Formulating a personal investment strategy led to the development of a venture capital firm that could apply the same purpose-driven approach to financial investments on a larger scale. Leaving his previous career as an accountant, Dan started to study different industries, and in healthcare, he saw not only enormous growth potential but also the opportunity to shape the future of the industry.
