DR. JACK KAVANAUGH: A NOTABLE DOCTOR AND AN ACCLAIMED BUSINESSMAN
As the
saying goes, neither is success final nor is failure fatal, it is the courage
that encourages people to keep continuing is what counts. Dr. Jack Kavanaugh is one such
courageous man who has always remained undaunted even in the face of adversity.
When he was already an established dentist in Beverly Hills, a major skiing
accident completely disrupted his successful practice, leaving him with a
fractured neck and leg. This forced him to leave this profession and commence
on a new career path.
With a
concerted effort, Dr. Jack Kavanaugh started afresh by completing an MBA from Anderson School of
Management, UCLA, which helped him to lay a solid foundation for his new
career. He then started working in mergers and acquisitions. He founded the
strategic consulting firm called International Strategy Consulting Group in
partnership with one of his former partners. He also served as the director for
Tech Team Global, an IT service providing company. He guided, supervised, and
created value for the organization, and with his help, the company’s share
price skyrocketed from 11 cents to around $33 per share.
Later he
returned to the field of medical science and earned his MD degree from the Keck
School of Medicine, USC. He then finished his ophthalmology residency from the
Jules Stein Eye Institute, UCLA, and joined the Calhoun Vision, Inc. as a board
member in 2000. This was a pioneer firm in biotechnology concentrated on the
invention of a type of lens whose power is adjustable post-implantation with
the help of safe, non-invasive application of light. In that year, he also
joined as a board member of Materia Inc., a firm engaged in the development and
manufacture of revolutionary catalysts and other advanced materials.
Other than
that, he was also a member of the board for the telecommunications and
financial services company named PreCash. In 2008, Dr. Kavanaugh established
his biotechnology firm called the ZetaRx Biosciences Inc., which was pioneering
innovative methods of cancer immunotherapy. He served this company as the
Chairman as well as the CEO.
In the year
2014, he co-founded Novonco Therapeutics Inc., which was associated with the
field of epigenetics. His interests in multiple fields helped him to render
exemplary services to the energy sector as well. He co-founded Nanotech Energy
Inc., which is the world's best supplier of graphene products. Currently, he is
serving as the chairman of RiverRock Films, SuperMetalix, Inc, and Orbsen Therapeutics
Limited.
Throughout
his career, Dr. Jack Kavanaugh
has been a part of various organizations that have revolutionized medical
treatments. His unique skill set and natural business acumen are the strong
points that have helped him in developing different companies in a very short
time. His perseverance, hard work, and superior management skills have steered
many firms to great success. He is also associated with several charitable
institutions in and around Los Angeles.
