Summary
Joe Chung is a serial technologist and founder who builds market-driven companies that scale, from co-founding Art Technology Group (acquired by Oracle for $1B) to recent AI-enabled healthcare ventures. He co-founded Kinto, led its evidence-based, human-in-the-loop GenAI dementia caregiver intervention through clinical trials and grants, and then served as CTO and Head of AI after Kinto’s acquisition by Rippl. As Co-Founder and Managing Director of Redstar Ventures he systematically incubates and markets new startups, pairing product vision with rigorous market validation and seed funding. Joe combines deep research roots—BS/MS from MIT and graduate work at the Media Lab under Marvin Minsky—with hands-on engineering, product and M&A leadership across enterprise software and digital health. He also brings governance experience as a director of Eastern Bank, chairing compensation and human capital oversight. A lifelong builder comfortable moving between lab, startup and boardroom, he favors market-first ideas validated by real-world evidence.
