The Billionaire Who Founded Groupon is Profiting in an Industry He Vowed to Avoid

Tech billionaire Eric Lefkofsky is on a mission to make his latest venture, health tech firm Tempus AI, the “enduring legacy” of his career. Founded in 2015, Tempus uses AI to analyze cancer patients’ tumor samples and provide personalized treatment plans. The company has now expanded into other areas such as psychiatric disorders and cardiology, with a goal to apply AI to all disease areas globally. Tempus went public this summer at a valuation of $6 billion and generated $600 million in revenue in the year through June, but is not yet profitable.

Lefkofsky’s career as a serial entrepreneur began with ventures in industries such as apparel, printing, logistics, media, and e-commerce. However, he never intended to enter the healthcare industry due to its regulatory complexities. That changed in 2014 when his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, prompting him to found Tempus. The company has since grown rapidly, securing partnerships with pharmaceutical firms and researchers. Lefkofsky’s personal passion for solving healthcare challenges has driven Tempus’ success, with a focus on using technology and AI to improve patient care.

While Lefkofsky has had a track record of quick success and exits in his previous ventures, Tempus marks a departure from his traditional approach. He has committed to making Tempus his lasting legacy and has spent the longest tenure as CEO at the company. Under his leadership, Tempus has developed a two-pronged revenue model, offering genetic sequencing services to healthcare providers and licensing its data for research purposes. Despite facing competition and legal challenges, Tempus is projected to be profitable within the next year.

Lefkofsky’s bold approach to entrepreneurship, coupled with his attention to detail and overconfidence, has propelled his success in building successful businesses. His ability to pivot and adapt to challenges has set him apart as a top entrepreneur. Tempus’ potential for growth in the intersection of AI and healthcare has led investors to support Lefkofsky’s vision for the company. As he aims to make Tempus his enduring legacy, Lefkofsky is confident in the company’s prospects for long-term success in the genomic sequencing and AI space.

Despite challenges and skeptics, Tempus continues to expand its offerings and reach, with a focus on improving patient care through data-driven insights. Lefkofsky’s commitment to innovation and problem-solving has driven Tempus’ growth and success in the healthcare industry. With the potential to revolutionize personalized medicine and disease treatment, Tempus could solidify Lefkofsky’s position as a pioneering figure in the health tech sector. As he looks towards the future, Lefkofsky remains optimistic about the company’s potential to become a leading player in the intersection of AI and healthcare.
