Sid Viswanathan is the Co-Founder and President of Truepill. He graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering. He then joined Johnson & Johnson, working in the medical device and pharmaceutical sectors. In 2010, Sid founded his first company, CardMunch, a business-card scanning app. Within a year the business was acquired by LinkedIn. Sid joined the company as Product Manager and saw CardMunch named one of Time Magazine’s Best Apps of 2012. After nearly four years at LinkedIn, he was ready for his next startup venture. Through his conversations with Co-founder Umar Afridi, it became clear that the pharmacy industry was ripe for a technological revolution.
