Beyond the Purpose: Jordan Abdi on building a reproductive health biotech from scratch
In this episode of Beyond the Purpose, hosts Jay Webster and James Cox are joined by Jordan Abdi, Co-Founder and CEO at U-Ploid Biotechnologies, a company working on egg quality, one of the biggest unsolved challenges in fertility. A physician by training, Jordan explains why he moved from clinical medicine into building a company, and why infertility has attracted so little investment relative to the size of the problem.
The conversation covers the science of egg quality and chromosome division in plain terms, why IVF outcomes have changed so little in decades and what a new class of reproductive therapeutics could mean for patients. Jordan also talks about founding a company without a university spin-out, raising capital at the earliest stage, leading a team of specialists and the lab problem that tennis balls helped solve. The discussion closes on where he sees the company in ten years and how AI is shaping biotech and business.
