Johan Jessen

Currently, I invest in elite founders at byFounders.

Previously, I co-founded ionlace, a biotech firm making ai designed nanobody binders to detect and predict rare diseases.

In California, I helped scale Level 5, Lyft's self-driving car unit. And at Google X I invented and launched moonshots in robotics, biology, and aerospace. My research at Stanford focused on design for digital trust.

Occasionally, I write essays and posts about making technology to advance humanity.
