How this Doctor transitioned to Consulting (McKinsey) and Healthtech Investing - Dr Chantal Cox

In this week’s episode Dr Chantal Cox shares her whirlwind journey from clinical medicine to consulting at McKinsey and now Healthtech VC investing at Octopus Ventures. We delve into the rational and logic for each career pivot including why she no longer wanted to climb the ranks at McKinsey. Chantal concisely covers the pros and cons of each role, sharing her advice for clinicians looking to explore alternative careers outside medicine and the reality of it all.

Chantal shares her passion to be a voice for change particularly changing the narrative in venture capital for females and founders of colour. She is also conscious how many young people see her as a role model and why it’s important she has real impact.

Dr Chantal Cox is an Early stage VC investor at Octopus Ventures (Health). Ex-strategy consultant at McKinsey & Company. Medical Doctor with 3+ years clinical experience in the National Health Service.
