About Zal Bilimoria
Zal Bilimoria is a solo GP at Refactor Capital who combines deep technical experience from building products at Microsoft and Google with a specific focus on non-human genomics, synthetic biology, and hard science investments that most software-focused seed investors avoid. He approaches investing through an engineering lens, using concepts like "refactoring" and "debugging" to help founders redesign foundational systems in health, food, and climate, while treating the venture capital process itself as a product experience by measuring founder satisfaction through systematic Net Promoter Score tracking.
