Our Mission
to revolutionize the diagnosis of autoimmune and infectious diseases
Our Story
The founding members of 210 Diagnostics Solutions—Reeva Kedia, Tristan Reynolds, Nicholas Beyer, and Luke Navarro—first met in a shared MBA class. The team members were randomly assigned to work together for a competition called the Innovate Children’s Health Challenge (ICHC). The competition, sponsored by the NIH, Center for Advancing Innovation, and Resonance Philanthropies of the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, called for competing teams to create a business plan for a patented technology. After five months of hard work and two phases of deliverables, the 210 team won the competition!
During the process of the competition, the founders became friends and grew increasingly inspired by the potential of their technology. The ICHC win further validated the product’s potential, and the founders decided to make their business plan a reality. Currently the founders have a final year of MBA classes, but are laying the groundwork to make 210 Diagnostics a successful full-time venture.
