Life at Twenty/Twenty

OUR SHARED PURSUIT OF INNOVATION

Life at Twenty/Twenty is all about the convergence of multiple disciplines.
We are a diverse mix of scientists, inventors, engineers and doctors.
Mostly, we’re eager to explore the innovations that arise where all these fields intersect.

“I look forward to work every day because we’re developing exciting technologies that will change the way health care can be delivered.”

  • Saving eyesight by applying AI and microelectronics

“I love being surrounded by coworkers so motivated by a sense of purpose.”

What drew you to Twenty/Twenty?

“I was excited to discover the freedom we have to direct our own work. Startups usually entail high-pressure to show growth and revenue. But Twenty/Twenty fosters innovation, not shortcuts.”

Engineer

“So many people I used to run into were intellectually bored. They found themselves working on things that really could have happened 10 or 20 years ago but had been pushed aside for various status quo reasons. At Twenty/Twenty, we’re applying new thinking and exciting technology that is going to retire those old-school ways.”

Inventor

“There’s a false belief in Silicon Valley that you either do deep research that never sees the light of day, or you have to work on consumer products and grind it out, rushing a new model to market each year. Twenty/Twenty appealed to me because I knew that I could work on cutting-edge research AND actually deliver something to the patient to improve their lives.”
