Marcus was inspired to create Jumpstart Nova after reflecting on his experience as a Black healthcare venture investor, and the success his company had in both finding and investing in Black healthcare entrepreneurs. He was the initial architect of the algorithm used to evaluate over one thousand early-stage healthcare companies for consideration by Jumpstart Foundry, the firm’s pre-seed index fund. From 2015-2018, Marcus was Founder and CEO of the Health:Further conference, where he supported the growth of Jumpstart Health Investors’ network with thousands of leaders in health innovation. Marcus is the author of the Amazon #1 best-selling book “Create and Orchestrate”, about claiming your Creative Power through entrepreneurship.
