Lip-Bu Tan Joins 4baseCare’s Advisory Board To Propel Growth In Precision Oncology

Lip-Bu Tan, Chairman of Walden International and Founding Managing Partner at Walden Catalyst Ventures, has joined the advisory board of 4baseCare, a company renowned for its precision oncology solutions.

In a press statement on Wednesday, the company informed that with over three decades of experience in deep-tech venture capital, Lip-Bu Tan is a leading figure in the global tech industry. Beyond his roles at Walden International and Walden Catalyst Ventures, he is the anchor investor and advisor at Yali Capital, the venture fund that spearheaded 4baseCare's USD 6 million Series A funding round.

Lip-Bu Tan's influence extends into the healthcare sector as well. He is a member of the Health Executive Council at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), and serves as Chairman at Greenstone Biosciences, a company revolutionising drug discovery, and Artera, a firm specializing in AI-enabled cancer diagnostics.

Expressing his enthusiasm for his new role at 4baseCare, Lip-Bu Tan remarked, "4baseCare's founders are deeply committed to personalized medicine and have a sharp strategic focus. Their genomic tests address a significant unmet need in Asian and Middle Eastern markets, where cancer treatment decisions have historically relied on data from Caucasian populations. By filling this critical genomics data gap, 4baseCare is poised to significantly impact cancer treatment approaches in these regions. I am excited to support them in their mission to advance personalized medicine through genomics."

Hitesh Goswami, CEO and Co-Founder of 4baseCare, expressed his excitement about the appointment, saying, "We are honored to have an industry luminary like Lip-Bu Tan on our advisory board. His extensive venture capital experience will be invaluable as we embark on our next growth phase. His advisory role will help us accelerate our efforts to expand into new markets, build a sustainable company, and positively impact millions of lives in need of cancer care."
