Thanks to Eric Cohen, an early investor in Levels, I (Lukas Steinbock) had the chance to speak to Sam Corcos, their CEO and Founder.

Levels helps thousands of people stay healthy by tracking their glucose levels through its biowearable CGM metabolic sensor. Levels recently raised a $12M seed round led by Andressen Horowitz (read more about the round on TechCrunch).

Sam is also the founder of three previous companies, including Cardash, which went through Y Combinator in 2017. He shares plenty of wisdom with us in this episode, including:

  • Key takeaways from his past experiences as an entrepreneur
  • The origin of Levels
  • How research has helped Levels
  • The most recent funding round
  • Advice to the younger generation
  • How to destress (don’t consume news?!)
