MAX GORBUK
Affiliate, Graduate School of Business - Academic Administration
BioI am a Computer Science student with a passion for building technology that solves real problems. My work ranges from co-founding MedAI, a healthcare startup helping doctors treat children on immunosuppressive therapy, to organizing charitable marathons and leading startup workshops for over 300 students across multiple universities.
Currently, I am a Research Analyst at the Stanford Venture Capital Initiative, working in an international team to analyze how innovation and investment intersect. This role has challenged me to think globally, collaborate across cultures, and tackle complex questions that may influence the future of entrepreneurship.
My projects have received national innovation grants and have been featured in private clinics, proving that impact can start small but scale fast with the right team and vision. I thrive at the intersection of product thinking, IT systems, and research, and I enjoy creating environments - whether in tech, education, or community events - where people can grow their ideas into reality.
Beyond tech and entrepreneurship, I am deeply interested in the stock market, cryptocurrencies, and Web3 technologies. I see them not only as financial instruments, but as powerful tools for creating new, decentralized economic models.
Always open to new collaborations, cross-disciplinary projects, and conversations about tech, social impact, and sustainable innovation. Let us connect and see what we can build together.
