Robert Nelsen co-founded ARCH Venture Partners to commercialize deep-science ideas from universities and national labs very early, often helping create companies from the lab bench up rather than just funding existing startups. He has a dual background in biology and economics that he uses to identify which nascent scientific ideas can become large companies, and he's known for getting involved extremely early—often before ideas appear in conferences—and pairing that science with experienced repeat executives.
